- Experience with multiple research methods, including case study research, large-scale surveys, and ethnographic interviewing techniques, with strong preference for experience in educational settings.
- Strong analytic skills, with preference for candidates that have experience with quantitative and qualitative analytic software such as SPSS, SAS, Atlas.TI, etc.
- Outstanding organizational and communication skills; capacity to support multiple projects simultaneously.
- Ability to attend to details, modify approaches in consideration of practical concerns, and accept and adapt to sudden changes in client priorities.
- Willingness to travel 8-10 times per year for site visits and client meetings. Many visits will be for 3-5 days each.
- Experience with educational technology use; curriculum and instruction in K-12 settings a significant plus.
