Policy

TIER has developed comprehensive analysis and position papers on each element of policy reform outlined in our mission statement, as follows.

All of the policy papers are currently being reviewed by our staff and policy advisors for necessary updates and recommendations.  Additional postings and policy releases are scheduled through the first quarter of 2012.  In particular, there will be new releases on academic accountability, academic standards, student assessments, educator effectiveness, financial accountability and productivity, and innovation, deregulation, and competition.  For more information on content and timing of releases, contact us.
