Architects, interior designers, plumbers, and engineers play a vital role in creating accessible, safe, functional, and aesthetically appealing bathing spaces. With growing demand and stricter regulations, accessibility must be more than just compliance; it must enhance safety, dignity, and usability. This course equips professionals to balance ADA, ANSI, and residential best practices, ensuring projects meet both legal standards and real-world needs.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Differentiate between ADA-compliant and accessible design for public and residential bathing spaces.
  • Recall key accessibility standards (ADA, ANSI, International Building Code®) and their applications when designing bathing spaces.
  • Apply best accessible design practices for grab bars, threshold types, seating, and material selection.
  • Integrate accessibility with aesthetics, ensuring functional yet visually appealing bathing spaces.
  • Address real-world challenges in accessible design.

Approximately 1 hour, 15 minutes. Delivered online, at your own pace.
