Clinical laboratory science (CLS) programs must establish essential requirements to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). These standards ensure equal opportunity for qualified students with disabilities in admissions and academic progress.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Disability Law

Background:

  • The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) impacts higher education, necessitating clear program standards.
  • Over 700 articles address the ADA's influence since its 1990 enactment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline essential requirements for clinical laboratory science (CLS) education.
  • To ensure CLS programs align with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
  • To provide a framework for student admissions and academic progress evaluation.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of professional and trade journals.
  • Analysis of ADA's impact on educational programs.

Main Results:

  • The ADA prohibits discrimination against academically qualified applicants with disabilities.

  • Academic programs must define essential requirements, separate from academic criteria and job functions.
  • Essential requirements, or technical standards, are task- and attribute-based criteria for educational programs.
  • Applicants/students need to meet these requirements directly or via reasonable accommodations.

    • Conclusions:

    • Educators must develop defensible essential and academic requirements by July 1994.
    • Programs need processes for managing admissions, progress, and completion.
    • These measures promote equal educational opportunities for qualified individuals with disabilities.
