AIM Basics for Families

Update March 22, 2019  | This web resource explains the concept of accessible instructional materials (AIM) to families of students with disabilities. The document helps families and other members of a child’s Individualized Education Program (IEP) team decide: whether the student needs Accessible Instructional Materials (AIM), what type of specialized format the student needs, how to access the materials for the student, and what supports the student needs to use AIM. This resource is available online, and in Word format and Spanish.

Editor’s Note: The acronym AIM has morphed over time into the acronym AEM, assessible educational materials. AEM is now the acronym you’ll hear most often.
