The National Institute for Early Education Research (NIEER) improves the learning and development of young children by collaborating with a network of local, state, national, and international early education practitioners to conduct, create and disseminate rigorous research, evaluation, and policy analysis that transforms early childhood policy and practice.
We offer independent, research-based analysis and technical assistance that provides the following:
‣ A rendering of early education excellence in terms policymakers can use and the public can understand.
‣ Monitoring and evaluation of national and state progress toward early educational excellence.
‣ Development and analysis of model legislation, standards, regulations, and other policies required to improve quality and increase access to good preschool programs.
‣ Compares the costs, outcomes, and economic benefits of alternative policies
We're transforming entire early education ecosystems by producing and using research that is child-centered, unbiased, and nonpartisan to influence policymaking to address the needs of young children and their families in their unique circumstances so as to improve their lives in these early years and to build the foundations for later success in school and life beyond school.
