Researching, evaluating, and purchasing the right educational technologies can be a daunting and exhaustive process for school districts – with curriculum and technology leaders carrying the weight of the burden. Selecting software solutions that drive accountability, student outcomes, and teacher success while ensuring data security, compliance, and integration with current systems consumes valuable and limited resources. That’s where Veracity can help.
Experienced and tech-savvy educators (we call Guardians), with a variety of industry experience and backgrounds, access selected systems and complete a rigorous and unbiased product assessment. Guardians mimic each user’s role, testing key areas of focus, ensuring a thorough evaluation, so you can make confident and sound purchasing decisions.
