Computer-based exam discriminated against blind candidate
OUT-LAW News, 24/01/2007
A qualifications body discriminated against a blind systems
manager when it failed to make its computer-based exam
accessible to her. The tribunal ruling is the first to find
a US company with no presence in the UK liable under the
UK's Disability Discrimination Act.
Sam Latif, 30, works as an IT Project Manager with Proctor &
Gamble in the UK.  In September 2004, she decided to study
for a Project Management Professional (PMP) qualification,
the most widely-recognised certification in project
management in the world.
