The University of Illinois Chicago’s Office for Access and Equity will resume its Professional Development Series this year, offering five workshops that address key topics in compliance, workplace culture, and best practices at the university. All sessions will be conducted online via Zoom.

The series begins on October 15 with “2025 National Disability Employment Awareness Month: Fostering a Workplace of Acceptance,” led by Peter Berg and a panel of experts. The second session, scheduled for November 19, is titled “Office of Access and Equity Essentials: Navigating the Complaint Process” and will feature presentations from Donald Kamm, Shawn Levesque, Jane Li, and Tramell Moore. On December 3, Donald Kamm will present “Pregnancy and Parenting Accommodations and Assistance at UIC.”

Details regarding the fourth and fifth sessions are expected to be announced in January 2026.
