Welcome to New England ADA Learning Center!

Welcome!



Welcome to the New England ADA Center's free online learning platform. The web courses were produced by the New England ADA Center, a project of the Institute for Human Centered Design. The New England ADA Center is one of 10 ADA Centers regionally located throughout the country comprising the ADA National Network. The ADA Centers provide information, guidance, training and research on the Americans with Disabilities Act.

These web courses were developed under a grant #90DPAD001 from the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR). NIDILRR is within the Administration for Community Living (ACL), and under the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The contents do not necessarily represent the policy of NIDILRR, ACL, HHS, and you should not assume endorsement by the Federal Government.
