 orty-eight years after the Architectural Barriers Act passed\, forty-three
  years after the Rehab Act passed\, and twenty five years after the ADA re
 gulations and standards were adopted there are still many questions about 
 how to apply them to the tens of millions of buildings and facilities they
  cover.  Interest in compliance is continuing to increase throughout the 
 country as are the court cases helping to define their application under e
 ach of the laws.  With ADA obligations and interpretations as the structu
 ral formwork for the class\, other requirements will be brought in where t
 hey are different.  This highly interactive workshop with six top instruc
 tors will focus on which laws\, regulations\, and standards apply to vario
 us project types\, examine trending issues\, and explore best practices an
 d universal design concepts that improve usability for everyone.  This fr
