How do I gain NIST experience without having NIST experience?

Throughout my GRC career I've managed exposure to several frameworks, but somehow have seemed to skirt NIST. I'm interviewing and NIST is frequently brought up and it seems to be a let down when I mention my experience with it is limited. What can I do to counter this issue? Would self education be helpful here?
