Innovation Through Inclusion: Improving Learning Resources Through Diversity

Advisory Board

The ITI Advisory Board is comprised of individuals who are not necessarily in the educational resource industry, but whom have insight into diversity and are willing to share their expertise with AEP. They helped AEP form the strategic vision, and their insights assisted in the development of a three-year action plan.
