CCSSO Technical Expertise Exchange Information Requests

CCSSO will be collaborating directly with states, business partners, and recognized experts in the procurement field to develop common information requests that best help states understand the capacity, expertise, and innovative ideas that providers can offer as states move forward in implementing ambitious reform agendas. CCSSO's Technical Expertise Exchange, is designed to allow information providers to inform a range of activities for state agencies, such as the development of on-going reform efforts and the developments of future RFPs.

Given this clear need to improve the system for connecting states and partners, CCSSO invites any interested for-profit organization, non-profit organization, research institution, institution of higher learning, policy organization, or individual consultant to register as a provider on the Technical Expertise Exchange, here. Registering as a provider allows your organization to submit responses to any of the information requests that CCSSO issues in the coming months.

Today, CCSSO releases five information requests in the area of Teacher and Leader Evaluation Systems. These five requests focus on practice standards; growth opportunities and supports; performance review systems for teachers; performance review systems for leaders; and best practices research. All providers will have until April 7 to submit responses to any or all of these requests.

For a calendar of future information requests, visit www.ccsso.org/CTEE. For any questions, please contact Margaret Millar at margaretm@ccsso.org or Lauren Stillman at laurens@ccsso.org.
