Education Commission of the States (ECS) was created by states, for states, in 1965.  ECS tracks state policy trends, translates academic research, provides unbiased advice and creates opportunities for state leaders to learn from one another.

 

A quick peek at their website will show the incredible wealth of information that is generated by ECS: http://www.ecs.org/html/aboutECS/home_aboutECS.htm

 

We are fortunate to have two ECS staff, Sara Shelton, Associate Director, State Relations and Bruce Atchison, Director Early Learning Institute visiting Hawaii on Wednesday, January 25 to share insights on state education policy trends across the country and early learning governance systems.
