Personalize Your Analytics Program
We align to your strategic objectives with a tried and tested approach to creating a data platform and program that improves desired outcomes.
First, we learn about your education outcomes and combine stakeholder interviews with a data discovery workshop to get the integration started the right way. View impact and value faster (weeks, not months) thanks to outcome alignment, and engage stakeholders around the most important education outcomes, not the minutiae of the underlying data.
Your Data Schema
We know two things really well - the educator and data. Through that lens, we design your analytics schema to answer your most burning questions.
Your Dashboards And Reports
Your personalized, role-based data dashboards ensure your stakeholders are always aligned to your organization's most important priorities.
Ongoing Adoption Coaching
We work with you during onboarding to define and report on the success of using our platform and your data over time.
Integrate Your Data
We are experts in building and managing your data analytics infrastructure.
The task of building a high-quality foundational data analytics infrastructure (e.g., integration, data warehouse) requires a specialized set of skills and capabilities; that’s where our team excels. Our team of data analysts, integration specialists, data warehouse designers, and data privacy experts solve for gaps in data interoperability, quality and privacy as well as ensure a secure, private and performant longitudinal data system.
Data Integration
Our integration platform has built-in support for over 100+ education systems. We also support rostering and SSO.
Data Collection
We provide a web-based proxy to collect student edtech application usage, and offer an optional survey instrument, specialized for education.
Data Storage
Our analytics database is secure and private, and compliant to FERPA, COPPA, and SOPIPA. It is standards aligned to EdFi, CEDS, or SIF.
Build your predictive analytics Models
After integrating your data, we build vital, high-impact algorithms, predictive analytics, and machine learning models for your organization.
Our research team creates a predictive model for your organization based on your historical data (e.g., patterns, trends) and organizes your data into an evidence-based framework. Your predictive algorithms in our platform harness the collective wisdom of education research that has been hand-picked based on validated impact in other environments like yours.
