The QIAT Community is a nationwide grassroots group that includes hundreds of individuals who provide input into the ongoing process of identifying, disseminating, and implementing a set of widely-applicable Quality Indicators for Assistive Technology Services in school settings that can be used as a tool to support:

​

• school districts as they strive to develop and provide quality assistive technology services aligned to federal, state and local mandates

• assistive technology service providers as they evaluate and constantly improve their services

• consumers of assistive technology services as they seek adequate assistive technology services which meet their needs

• universities and professional developers as they conduct research and deliver programs that promote the development of the competencies needed to provide quality assistive technology services

• policy makers as they attempt to develop judicious and equitable policies related to assistive technology services.
