The RHFAC is offered as a training course that allows individuals to become certified accessibility assessors and helps them to better understand physical accessibility, how they can improve,\u202fand identify\u202fbarriers\u202ffor their community, customers, or employees.<\/p>\n<p>This training course is highly recommended for individuals who are involved in assessing, designing, constructing, commissioning, or maintaining buildings or their surroundings.<\/p>\n<p>As the need for increased accessibility in all communities continues to grow, the RHFAC Training is a great opportunity for IDC members to enhance their skills and ensure everyone can access and use the spaces they\u2019re designing, building, or managing in a meaningful way. I kindly request that you share the RHFAC Training course with your members, either by forwarding this email, or if applicable, adding the course to your association\u2019s event calendar or professional development listing.<\/p>\n<p>The RHFAC Training is held twice throughout the year, and we are currently accepting registrations for fall 2021 and spring 2022.
