Why Attend the National ADA Symposium?

For over 25 years, the National ADA Symposium has been recognized as the leading national conference on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and accessibility. This premier event brings together federal officials, nationally respected experts, and experienced practitioners to share cutting-edge information, practical guidance, and best practices. Deepen your knowledge, connect with leaders in the field, and stay at the forefront of ADA and disability-related developments.
We invite you to join us virtually in May or in Phoenix in July-or attend both events!
The National ADA Symposium was a great resource for me as a new ADA Coordinator. Participating in informative discussion sessions, meeting others in the field, and access to vendors specializing in accessible technologies were just some of the highlights for me.
