They agreed on the need for professional guidelines to improve the quality and consistency of AT delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince then, the QIAT Leadership Team has gathered input from more than 4,000 individuals ranging from students and families to school staff, policy makers, and higher education faculty.
