The National Association of Institutions for Military Education Services (NAIMES) is committed to promoting high quality, pedagogically sound educational opportunities for the military community. NAIMES endorses the ideals of voluntary education and in so doing represents a wide range of colleges and universities. NAIMES will accomplish these goals through advocacy for the military student, partnership with the military education community and promoting "best practices" for conducting military education programs. As a force for change and advocate for the military student, NAIMES will take positions that reflect the collective will of the membership.
