Overview
The Wisconsin Accessible Educational Materials (WIAEM) Center is a point-of-contact for educators to seek support in acquiring materials for students with IEPs. The acquisition of Accessible Educational Materials (AEM) for students with IEPs means that students have materials in a timely manner (as to when non-disabled peers receive materials), and in accessible formats that address their disability-related need(s).
Accessible formats for students who need Braille or Large Print materials can be requested through the Wisconsin Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired (WCBVI). For Braille or Large Print materials, you can request materials through the WCBVI Book Request Form found here.
For students who are not blind or visually impaired and for whom the IEP team has determined the need for accessible formats, educators can contact the WI AEM Center. The WI AEM Center can assist in securing copyright-protected K-12 textbooks and core instructional materials. Please submit a request ticket for each qualifying student by completing a help ticket.
If you have additional questions, please contact Stacy Duffy at stacy.duffy@cesa2.org.
