Collaboration provides the NSBA with an innovative tool to gather and analyze data for its state benchmarking studies

(HERNDON, VA) February 17, 2016 – K12 Insight today announced a partnership with the National School Boards Association (NSBA). As part of the agreement, NSBA will use K12 Insight’s Engage survey solution to listen to and understand the needs of its more than 90,000 school board members across the country.

Specifically, NSBA will use K12 Insight’s fully managed survey solution to gather and analyze data for its state benchmark studies. K12 Insight will conduct seven surveys and provide data analysis delivered to the NSBA in four customized reports.

In all of these publications, K12 Insight will share examples of best practices in successful districts, highlight the resources it offers, and showcase its research on the benefits of community engagement. K12 Insight will also host a series of webinars in conjunction with the articles it contributes.
