Career Chat: Navigating Disclosure & Accommodations

Apr 15, 2021 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Registration Deadline: Apr 15, 2021 09:00 AM

  • Wondering how to have conversations with employers about disclosure and accommodations. 
  • Not sure when would be the "right" time to disclose or request accommodations? 
Often navigating disclosure and accommodations can feel intimidating or overwhelming.  

In this interactive themed discussion, co-facilitated by a Career Educator and an Accessibility Advisor, you and a small group of your peers will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss strategies for navigating disclosure and accommodations. There will be a 15-minute presentation by the Accessibility Advisor, followed by 30 minutes of discussion-based conversation. Attendance is capped to ensure all participants have the space to share their questions, thoughts and experiences and provide their own advice.
