“Any Questions about ADA focusing on Deaf\/Hard of Hearing?”<\/p>\n
If you don’t think that attending to the ADA training would be<\/p>\n
beneficial, answer the questions below:<\/p>\n
1) Have you ever been confused about what ADA really says?<\/p>\n
2) Does a private doctor’s office have to employ at least 15<\/p>\n
employees before having to comply with ADA ?<\/p>\n
3) Does a Social Security office have to follow ADA ?<\/p>\n
4) Under the ADA , are the employers required to pay for the<\/p>\n
interpreters for their Deaf\/hard of hearing employees?<\/p>\n
5) Does ADA apply to a public college\/university only, not a private<\/p>\n
one?<\/p>\n
If you answer “Yes” to at least one of any above questions, come<\/p>\n
