Agency for Instructional Technology

The Agency for Instructional Technology (AIT) was a non-profit organization in the United States that produced, sold and distributed educational and instructional television programs, and other multimedia materials, to schools in the United States and Canada.

Many of AIT's programs were produced in association with other producers and television stations, and were funded by various state, provincial and local educational-related agencies, with additional support from various corporate sponsors and philanthropical organisations.

AIT was based in Bloomington, Indiana and was founded by Edwin George Cohen.

In 1965, NIT would part ways with NET and relocate to its present home in Bloomington, Indiana, where it became the National Center for School and College Television (NCSCT).

The archives of the AIT are now part of the collection of the Indiana University Libraries Moving Image Archive;[1][2] many of AIT's programs can be viewed online through the Indiana University website.
