Our team includes experienced researchers who have substantial applied experience conducting quasi-experimental research, using quantitative techniques including regression, multilevel modeling, factor analysis, propensity score matching, and survival analysis. We work with districts, universities and state education agencies to conduct research and/or to serve as third-party evaluators. And because our backgrounds include having served in roles at education agencies, including psychometrician, Senior Director of Research, and Chief Assessment Officer, we understand the nuances of educational data sets.

Our team has experience conducting qualitative research on behalf of school districts and state education agencies, including interviews, surveys, and focus groups with diverse stakeholders ranging from students, to teachers, to district leaders and community members.
