JOIN A DISCUSSION
AIM forum
The AIM forum is a space to ask questions, get answers, share teaching and learning strategies, and discuss new information and technology related to AIM and NIMAS. The AIM forum encourages the composing of "byte-sized" information—one idea per post and the sharing of ‘imperfect’ ideas to generate more meaningful discussion than perfectly framed ones. Over time, the accumulation of knowledge sharing will grow into a knowledge base that is invaluable to all.

This listserv is available to anyone interested in AIM policy and practice. Feel free to ask a question about implementation at the state and local district levels.
nimas.ig listserv
This listserv is available to those interested in the technical aspects of NIMAS and conversion to specialized formats. Share information and post questions to the list.

GET THE INSIDE TRACK
AIM Center
The AIM Center works with key stakeholders such as states, districts, and an OSEP-supported network of technical assistance and dissemination projects to support the implementation of NIMAS and effective uses of accessible instructional materials (AIM).
NIMAS Center
The NIMAS Center maintains and updates the National Instructional Materials Accessibility Standard (NIMAS), which guides the production of digital versions of textbooks and related instructional materials so they can be more easily converted to accessible formats, including Braille and text-to-speech.
