Newport Beach Civic Center & Park: An ADA Walking Tour

Yes! In-Person!

Get Your CAB license renewal units for this year if needed, or plan ahead for 2023!

Are you looking for a program to meet the California Architects Board ADA/Accessibility course requirement? AIAOC is offering you an opportunity to earn 2.0 qualifying units for license renewal. Have you already renewed your 2021 License? These 2 hours will count toward your 2023 CAB License renewal. Yes! CAB's requirement is to complete five hours of coursework on disability access requirements within the previous two years, so why wait? For example, if you renewed your license in May 2021, accessibility units taken over the next two years will be applied to your 2023 renewal.

Attendees will tour the Newport Beach Civic Center and adjacent parks. During this approximately one-mile walking tour, attendees will learn about ADA applications as they impact the external environment including the implication of ramps, bridges, elevators, seating, parking, and general movement through a sloped park.

Learning Objectives:
Attendees will learn about the application of ADA on park-like settings
Attendees will have a hands-on experience to see actual applications good and bad
Attendees will discuss alternative methods for ADA design during the initial design phase
Attendees will learn how to modify existing conditions to bring them to code compliance
