Forecasting Enrollments
This is our speciality. We explore enrollment trends, birth trends, regional growth patterns and use various models to help predict future enrollment trends. In reality, no one can really predict the future, but with reasonable methods and good data we can sometimes be right about it for a specific stretch of time. We try to be realistic in our assessment of the future, relying on multiple models, a range of estimates, and identification of key factors you should monitor, so that you will not be blindsided by changing enrollment patterns.

Testing and Assessment
In our initial ten years we also specialized in the development of PC and Web based databases to help school districts monitor student progress. This development dovetailed with the renewed national interest in accountability and assessment. Although we can still provide this service, our primary emphasis is on specialized projects that focus on the relationship between demographics and test scores, or projects that help school districts isolate the importance of demographics, curriculum, and other factors in hindering or helping students in the classroom.
