Bringing STEM programs to life through thoughtful evaluation that tells the full story.

At the Innovative Learning Center’s Division of Research and Evaluation, we partner with Principal Investigators and STEM Program Directors to uncover what’s working, where there’s room to grow, and how to move forward with confidence. Our approach is personal, patient, and rooted in trust. We take the time to understand your goals and your community, using both qualitative and quantitative data to uncover meaningful insights.

Institutions we have worked with

Together, we’ll make sense of the story behind the numbers and help you make informed, evidence-based decisions that truly reflect your program’s impact. We work to ensure that we offer our clients customized evaluation designs and provide data-driven feedback to help them capture key metrics related to the success of their programs. We offer advanced evaluation and analytic services like creating Knowledge Graphs and Conceptual Structural Equation Models (C-SEM)

“We collaborated on a National Science Foundation Grant that was funded and extremely successful in Florida. I don’t believe we would have had the level of effectiveness and success without her knowledge base and understanding of STEM education and gender equity. Our collaboration was special and inspirational. ILC challenged our team to ensure that all measures we applied were based on sound research and proper evaluation.”
