National Education Researcher Database to Launch Fall 2017

March 7, 2017

The University of Virginia in conjunction with the Jefferson Education Accelerator is building a “comprehensive catalog of education research” in response to ESSA’s call for evidence standards. The National Education Researcher Database (NERD) will launch in the fall of 2017 with an archive of more than “10,000 education researchers, including areas of expertise, contact information, and tags” that will allow users to “follow” issues and receive up-to-date information.
