CEU Credit: One (1) continuing education credit is offered for a maximum of one-hour live attendance for DSA CASp certification or CAB credits, to be self-reported.
Please join us at our next code discussion group in April. This session will focus on employee work areas, workstations, and common-use spaces. The differences between the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design and Chapter 11B of the California Building Code are included in the discussion.”
The discussion includes employee works areas exempt from access compliance and employee work areas in commercial facilities and public accommodations.
This discussion session is NOT a lecture, so come prepared with your code book and be ready to apply the code provisions to real-world examples.
You will be divided into random breakout groups. Each breakout group will have 25 minutes to discuss a scenario guided by a CASI facilitator. Then, we will reconvene, and a representative from each breakout group will have up to 5 minutes to present the scenario, any discussions/debates, and the group interpretation of the applicable codes.
Scenarios addressing the following aspects of code will be discussed:
- Common use areas for the use of employees.
- Differences between the 2010 ADAS and Chapter 11B.
- Employees use areas that are exempt from access compliance.
One (1) continuing education credit is offered for a maximum of one hour of live attendance for DSA CASp certification renewal and the California Architects Board License Renewal for Disability Access Requirements. These credits are self-reported.
The Discussion Groups are available FREE to CASI members only. Registration is required.
Webinar information to join the discussion group will be sent out the day prior to the scheduled session date. The discussion groups will be recorded and archived in the member dashboard for those who cannot attend the live session.
