Our Services

  • We design and conduct rigorous research and program evaluation to help schools and education-focused organizations understand impact, strengthen programs, and make informed decisions. Our work supports schools, nonprofits, and mission-driven organizations seeking deeper insight into the outcomes of their programs and initiatives.

    We also serve as independent external evaluators for grant-funded initiatives, helping organizations meet funder requirements while generating meaningful evidence for learning, improvement, and future investment.

    Common engagements include:

    • Program and initiative evaluations

    • Needs assessments to inform program design and strategic planning

    • External evaluation for grant-funded programs

    • Mixed-methods research studies

    • Surveys, interviews, and focus groups

    • Outcome measurement and impact analysis

    • Reporting for funders, boards, and leadership teams

  • WEG helps educators and education leaders build the knowledge, skills, and shared understanding needed to lead change and strengthen practice. We design professional learning that is grounded in current academic research, interactive, and closely connected to real challenges facing schools and organizations. Our work emphasizes application, reflection, and follow-through so learning leads to meaningful improvement.

    Examples include:

    • Designing and facilitating professional learning aligned to school improvement goals or new initiatives

    • Supporting Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) focused on inquiry, instructional practice, or data-informed decision making

    • Facilitating Communities of Practice that connect educators around shared roles, challenges, or priorities

    • Developing multi-session professional learning series that blend research, practice, and reflection over time

    • Helping leadership teams build shared understanding around research-based practices or change efforts

    • Translating research and local data into accessible learning experiences for educators and leaders

    • Providing follow-up support to strengthen implementation and sustain learning over time

  • WEG partners with schools and education organizations to design clear, engaging learning experiences that support understanding, alignment, and engagement across stakeholder groups. We focus on creating polished, research-informed digital or blended learning products that help schools communicate complex ideas, onboard communities, and support new initiatives in ways that are accessible and sustainable.

    Our work blends instructional design, learning science, and storytelling to create materials that are practical, reusable, and tailored to your context—whether the goal is learning, orientation, or shared understanding.

    Examples of learning experience design work include:

    • Designing onboarding experiences for new faculty, families, or students

    • Creating learning modules to support the launch of new school initiatives or programs

    • Developing parent- or caregiver-facing learning experiences around student needs, policies, or practices

    • Designing professional learning experiences connected to research findings or evaluation results

    • Creating digital or blended learning materials to support schoolwide priorities (e.g., equity initiatives, instructional shifts, strategic plans)

    • Translating research or complex information into engaging, accessible learning products for non-technical audiences

  • Not every need requires an evaluation or research. Sometimes leaders need focused expertise, a trusted thought partner, or a rigorous second set of eyes at a pivotal moment.

    Wasatch Education Group offers senior-level advisory support for schools, nonprofits, and research partners seeking targeted guidance without the scope of a larger project.

    We regularly support focused engagements such as:

    • Reviewing and strengthening surveys, interview protocols, or evaluation tools

    • Advising on research design, methodology, and mixed-methods integration

    • Interpreting findings and refining reports for clarity and impact

    • Facilitating strategic conversations with leadership teams or boards

    • Conducting rapid literature reviews or synthesis briefs

    • Providing methodological consultation or peer review for research teams

    • Advising during RFP development or proposal design

    Engagements may range from a single advisory session to a defined block of hours over several weeks. Each is scoped collaboratively and grounded in the same rigor and care that shape our larger partnerships.
