CAST

The acronym “CAST” derives from the original name of the organization, Center for Applied Special Technology. Now it is simply CAST.

CAST is a nonprofit education research and development organization that created the Universal Design for Learning framework and UDL Guidelines, now used all over the world to make learning more inclusive.

CAST leads, inspires, and convenes a global community to design equitable, inclusive learning experiences through their Universal Design for Learning framework.

They envision a world where all learning experiences in school, the workplace, and life are intentionally designed to elevate strengths and eliminate barriers so everyone has the opportunity to grow and thrive.
