I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The purposes of
the Educational Technology, Media, and
Materials for Individuals with
Disabilities Program 1 are to improve
results for children with disabilities by:
(1) Promoting the development,
demonstration, and use of technology;
(2) supporting educational media
activities designed to be of educational
value in the classroom for students with
disabilities; (3) providing support for
captioning and video description that is
appropriate for use in the classroom;
and (4) providing accessible educational
materials to students with disabilities in
a timely manner.
Priority: In accordance with 34 CFR
75.105(b)(2)(v), this priority is from
1 This program was formerly called ‘‘Technology
and Media Services for Individuals with
Disabilities.’’ The Department has changed the
name to Educational Technology, Media, and
Materials for Individuals with Disabilities and
updated the purposes of the program to more
clearly convey that the program includes accessible
educational materials. The program’s activities and
statutory authorization (20 U.S.C. 1474) remain
unchanged.

allowable activities specified in the
statute (see sections 674 and 681(d) of
the Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (IDEA) (20 U.S.C. 1400 et
seq.)).
Absolute Priority: For FY 2014 and
any subsequent year in which we make
awards from the list of unfunded
applicants from this competition, this
priority is an absolute priority. Under 34
CFR 75.105(c)(3), we consider only
applications that meet this priority.
This priority is:
Educational Technology, Media, and
Materials for Individuals with
Disabilities—National Center on
Accessible Educational Materials for
Learning.
Background:
The purpose of this priority is to fund
a cooperative agreement to establish and
operate a National Center on Accessible
Educational Materials for Learning
(Center). The Center will work with
State educational agencies (SEAs), local
educational agencies (LEAs), and other
stakeholders to improve the quality,
availability, and timely delivery of
accessible educational materials and
technologies for use by infants, toddlers,
children, and youth with disabilities
(hereafter referred to as ‘‘children with
disabilities’’ and includes children who
are blind or other persons with print
disabilities). The Center’s efforts will
help support equitable opportunities for
children with disabilities to: (1)
Participate in high-quality early learning
programs, (2) be involved in and
progress in the general education
curriculum, (3) prepare to meet collegeand career-ready standards, (4)
participate in assessments, and (5)
transition to postsecondary education
and the workforce.
The Center will achieve these results
by: (1) Providing information to OSEP
on how the technical specifications of
the National Instructional Materials
Accessibility Standards (NIMAS) can be
improved to ensure digital files meet the
same standard and can be easily
converted into whatever accessible
format meets the unique needs of
children who are blind or other persons
with print disabilities; (2) providing
technical assistance (TA) to build the
capacity of stakeholders to design,
develop, procure, and maintain
technologies for use in schools and
workplaces that conform to robust
accessibility standards and, as
appropriate, NIMAS; (3) providing TA
to SEAs, LEAs, and other stakeholders
to ensure the adoption and
implementation of efficient, effective,
and unified distribution systems or to
ensure the improvement of existing
systems for the timely delivery of
PO 00000

accessible educational materials and
technologies to children with
disabilities, including those children
with disabilities who may be
underserved; 2 and (4) providing TA to
postsecondary education and workforce
development agencies or offices to
ensure the availability and use of
accessible educational materials and
technologies by children with
disabilities transitioning to
postsecondary education and the
workforce.
Under section 612(a)(1) of the
Individuals with Disabilities Education
Act (IDEA), States must ensure that a
free appropriate public education
(FAPE) be made available to all children
with disabilities.3 IDEA also requires
that all children with disabilities are
included in all general State and
districtwide assessment programs (see
section 612(a)(16)). Accessible
educational materials and technologies
enable children with disabilities to have
access to, and be involved in and make
progress in, the general education
curriculum (or for a preschool child, to
participate in appropriate activities) and
assessments. The 2004 amendments to
IDEA required the Secretary to establish,
and States to adopt, the NIMAS to
improve the timely production and
dissemination of educational materials
in accessible formats for students who
are blind or other persons with print
disabilities (see sections 612(a)(23) and
674(e) of IDEA). The NIMAS ensures
that digital files meet a consistent
standard and can be easily converted
into whatever accessible format meets
the unique needs of these students. In
addition, SEAs and LEAs are
responsible for ensuring that children
with disabilities who need instructional
materials in accessible formats but are
not included under the definition of
blind or other persons with print
disabilities, or who need materials that
cannot be produced from NIMAS files,
also receive those instructional
materials in a timely manner (34 CFR
300.172(b)(3) and 300.210(b)(3)).
To support SEAs’ and LEAs’ efficient
and timely distribution of accessible
materials, OSEP established the
National Instructional Materials Access
2 As used in this priority and in a manner
consistent with 20 U.S.C. 7255(a) of the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended,
‘‘underserved populations’’ include disadvantaged,
illiterate, limited English proficient populations,
and individuals with disabilities.
3 FAPE involves providing special education,
related services, and supplementary aides and
services, including educational materials in
accessible formats for children with disabilities
who are blind or other persons with print
disabilities who are eligible for services under Part
B of IDEA.
