Education Division programs help identify trends, understand outcomes, and guide policy and practice. We work with state and federal agencies, private foundations, nonprofit organizations, and commercial clients to provide research-based solutions to challenges posed by rapid social, technological and economic change.

Teams are tailored to each assignment. They may include such experts as economists, political scientists, sociologists, anthropologists, cognitive and behavioral psychologists, statisticians, computer scientists, and education researchers.

Our clients include U.S. and California Departments of Education, the National Science Foundation, state governments, and major foundations and corporations.
