AEM Quality Indicators with Critical Components for K-12: SEAs and LEAs. V.3.0
National Center on Accessible Educational Materials
The purpose of the National AEM Center's Quality Indicators with Critical Components for K-12 is to assist State and local education agencies with planning, implementing, and evaluating dynamic, coordinated systems for providing accessible materials and technologies for all students who need them. The ultimate goal of an AEM provision system is that accessibility becomes an essential criterion in the procurement and creation of high-quality educational materials and technologies. To that end, the Quality Indicators with Critical Components are a means to provide States and local school districts with consistent objectives, and to promote discussion around multiple methods to achieve those objectives. The Quality Indicators are brief statements that point to exemplifying conditions and services for creating and sustaining a statewide, high-quality AEM provision system. States and local school districts will find the Quality Indicators useful for implementing statutory requirements that mandate equitable access to learning opportunities for students with disabilities, including equal access to printed materials, digital materials, and technologies.
