I thought that the presenter talked about the law too much and not enough about handling HR situations.

The presenter was hard to hear. There were topics that were fairly important that were glossed over - it would have been helpful to get real examples of what what undue hardship looked like and discuss actual issues for employers around ADA and FMLA - i.e. at what point can the employer say - this is something we can provide - what circumstances would merit this?
