The Center for Education (CFE) promotes evidence-based policy analysis that can help to improve education for all Americans.
Formed in 1999 as the locus for education activities in the National Academies, the Center is dedicated to engaging in work that is both responsive and anticipatory: responsive to government’s and other stakeholders’ program and research interests; and anticipatory of long-term challenges, opportunities, and needs that affect the future of education research and policy priorities.
The Center brings together the nation’s premier national, state, and local leaders from education, academe, industry and government to address critical national issues in education research, policy, and practice.
Through studies, reports, workshops, websites and other activities, the Center informs many of the most critical issues facing education today: standards, assessment, teaching, technology, preparation of youth for productive futures, and the improvement of educational research.
