The National Council on Disability Affairs (NCDA) commends the ongoing efforts of both public and private sectors in raising awareness on disability rights and promoting respect and sensitivity to persons with disabilities toward an inclusive society for all. This growing commitment is reflected in the increasing number of requests received by NCDA to serve as Resource Persons in the conduct of Disability Sensitivity Orientations or Trainings. NCDA encourages all partners and stakeholders to access and make full use of the Accessible Online Learning System (OLS) available on our website. The AOLS features a range of modules focused on disability-related topics, including comprehensive content on disability rights and sensitivity. The AOLS platform is free of charge, user-friendly, and accessible anytime, offering a flexible learning experience for individuals and organizations alike. Moreover, we highly recommend that the partners request assistance from the Persons with Disability Affairs Offices (PDAOs) to assist stakeholders in the conduct of said disability orientation or training. Together, let us continue to foster a more inclusive, informed, and compassionate society.
