Registering as an Accessible Media Producer

If you or your agency does work converting NIMAS into accessible formats for use by students, we invite you to register for an accessible media producer (AMP) account with the NIMAC. While Authorized Users of the NIMAC must be designated by the State Coordinator, AMP accounts are available to anyone who wishes to register. However, AMP accounts are more limited, as AMPs can only download files assigned to them by an Authorized User.

All Accessible Media Producers that register with the NIMAC must submit a Limitation of Use Agreement. This document is emailed to the new user as a part of the registration process.

Registering as an AMP with the NIMAC is free. Contact us at nimac[at]aph.org to get started.
