Briefing for Human Resources Professionals on Managing the EEO/Affirmative Action Program for Protected Veterans and Individuals with Disabilities

We are offering a new online course for Human Resource professionals covering the recent AAP regulations for Protected Veterans and Individuals with Disabilities. Employers have anti-discrimination obligations under the Rehabilitation Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the American with Disabilities Act Amendments Action (ADAAA), and the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA).  [The Jobs for Veterans Act is an amendment to VEVRAA.]

This class examines what Human Resources professionals need to consider in order  to comply with the new regulations. You’ll find information on how to attract, assess, employ, and manage these distinct and sometimes overlapping groups. At the end of the class you’ll find a checklist for a convenient review of the requirements. Follow this link: AAP for HR Professionals

We also offer an online course for managers and supervisors on what they need to know about Protected Veterans and Individuals with Disabilities.  This course is designed to meet the training obligations called for in the new AAP regulations and should free up the Human Resource Professionals from having to figure out how to meet this obligation.
