When utilized correctly, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act can serve as an important tool to help students with disabilities obtain accommodations they need to succeed in school. At this training, we will demystify the 504 accommodation process by talking in detail about the differences between the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, understanding the 504 accommodation request process and effective communication standards, tips for best practices, and resources for students, school personnel, and families.
