A nationally recognized expert in accessible educational materials and Universal Design for Learning, Skip Stahl accrued extensive experience in advising education stakeholders—including states, district leaders, publishers, and policymakers—on how to make learning environments and products more effective and inclusive for all.

Mr. Stahl was formerly Co-Director of the federally-funded [HYPERLINK: National Center on Accessible Educational Materials (AEM Center) (https://www.cast.org/our-work/projects/national-aem-center-accessible-educational-materials-learning)], where he lead a national initiative to assure that educational materials are developed and distributed in ways that are accessible, appropriate, and readily available to all students. He was also CAST’s Project Director for the Center on Online Learning and Students with Disabilities, a partnership with the University of Kansas and the National Association of State Directors of Special Education.

Skip’s experience as one of CAST’s five founding staff members provides an active historical perspective to support the organization’s future.

My Inspiration
Two guiding aphorisms offered by my supervisor during my student teaching practicum: “Teach your room and learn your kids” and “Can these students think themselves into a new way of acting, or do they have to act themselves into a new way of thinking?””
