The unraveling of Silicon Valley Bank jolted the universe of education companies who had counted on the institution and had come to regard it as the “bank of innovation,” in the words of one ed-tech leader. What will be the long-term implications of the bank’s implosion on the work of education startup companies, and on investors who seek to help those fledgling businesses grow? What options are left for entrepreneurs looking for reliable and creative financial support? In this webinar, EdWeek Market Brief stages a discussion with entrepreneurs and investors on how SVB’s fall changes the landscape for education companies, and for investors. Attendees will come away with valuable insights on the following:
    • Where ed-tech startups will turn for financial support now that SVB is no longer an option
    • How SVB’s undoing fits into a broader slowdown of venture capital investment into K-12 education, and how venture capitalists are expanding their portfolios or retrenching
    • More broadly, what are the prospects for innovation in a market where creative and flexible lending may now be harder to come by?

School districts have seen their budgets swell in recent years because of strong economic growth, robust tax revenues, and a huge amount of federal stimulus funding. But now, many K-12 systems face uncertainty because of declining student enrollments and the end of federal emergency aid. And no one seems sure where the economy is headed. In this webinar, EdWeek Market Brief will get a national and local school district perspective on what’s next for school systems, and ultimately for the school companies tasked with delivering products and services in curriculum, assessment, PD, social-emotional learning, and other areas. Webinar attendees will gain the following:
    • Survey results taken from districts on how many of them are experiencing enrollment drops, and how they expect it to affect their budgets
    • Insights on how budgetary pressures could affect district spending, and what they are likely to cut or spare from cuts
    • On-the-ground perspective from district officials on how they’re managing these pressures, and what they will prioritize in future spending.

School systems across the country continue to wrestle with how to help students recover from severe academic setbacks experienced during the pandemic. District administrators and classroom educators have tried to set in motion strategies to accurately assess where students need the most support, and what kinds of interventions, from tutoring to out-of-school support to a revamping of existing lessons, will provide the most help. In this webinar, EdWeek Market Brief will take an in-depth look at the barriers school districts face in addressing unfinished learning, and what support they need from education companies delivering curriculum, assessment, PD, data-analysis, and other products. The webinar will offer:
    • An in-depth discussion of the approaches being used by districts to assess students’ academic strengths and weaknesses over the past two years
    • Original survey data collected from K-12 officials by EdWeek Market Brief on which academic subjects/grade levels need the most attention in addressing unfinished learning, the biggest hurdles they see in going about that work, and the assessment models they favor

The Nov. 8 election has potentially huge implications for education policy and practice -- and for the companies delivering curriculum, assessment, PD, ed tech, and other products and services to schools. In this webinar, we’ll talk about what shifts in political power at both the state and federal level will mean for companies trying to figure out the future of school funding, academic recovery, and classroom practice. Our attendees will come away with insights on the following:
    • Whether new state legislative dynamics and shifting economic conditions will change funding prospects for school districts.
    • How key state ballot items in markets like California, Colorado, Massachusetts, and West Virginia will change the funding and policy landscape.
    • How party control of U.S. Congress will affect the money and policy directed to states and districts.
    • How Republican candidates’ pledges to further restrict lessons on race and general will shape expectations for district curriculum.

It’s one of the biggest complaints that school districts have of education companies: They sell an educational product, and then fail to follow up by making sure it’s implemented correctly. Vendors also become frustrated when districts aren’t using products the way that they’re designed to be used. You’ll also receive critical results from original EdWeek Market Brief survey data on what districts expect from companies in implementing their programs. *The original version of this webinar included survey data that was preliminary, not final.

Many organizations in the K-12 market like the idea of building an evidence or research base for their products, to show district buyers they’re improving outcomes in schools. But they often aren’t sure how to go about that research–and in trying, they may make mistakes that waste time and money. EdWeek Market Brief will be joined by a pair of researchers who work directly with companies on this process. We’ll talk about the standards set by the product-evaluation program they direct–Evidence for ESSA (The Every Student Succeeds Act)–how their program is evolving, and what advice they give to education companies trying to conduct research that matters to school districts.

Many education companies have scrambled to deliver products in curriculum, professional development, assessment, technology, and other areas that meet those schools’ needs. In this webinar, EdWeek Market Brief will lead a discussion on the key demands of vendors that have emerged from these schools, how their needs have changed during the pandemic, and what’s ahead as they try to emerge from COVID-19. Attendees will come away with the following:
    • New insights from ISC Research – which studies international private schools -- about key purchasing priorities in the sector, and which school officials make buying decisions;
    • The perspective of company officials who have worked in international schools on how to establish relationships with them, and mistakes to avoid; and
    • How regulatory and policy changes in key markets – like China – have affected international schools and vendors’ ability to work with them.

But K-12 officials and companies see signs that the pandemic has brought lasting changes to the expectations that districts have for products, and for the companies serving them. In this webinar, EdWeek Market Brief brings together education company executives and district officials for a focused discussion of how schools’ experiences with remote learning, and new forms of instruction and product support may have permanently altered the market. Attendees to this webinar will come away with:
    • Original EdWeek Market Brief survey results from district officials about what kinds of products they see becoming more essential, in the post-pandemic school environment.
    • Insights on what kinds of products district are demand this fall – for many districts, the first full semester of in-person learning.
    • A discussion of how demand for specific product areas – such as curriculum, professional development, and data and tech platforms – are likely to change because of new district needs.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced a sudden retreat from districts being willing and able to meet with companies in-person – for professional development sessions, on-site school visits, pilots of products, and face-to-face conferences. How close are school districts to returning to pre-pandemic norms? In this webinar, EdWeek Market Brief will break down recent survey data collected from K-12 officials about their appetite for meeting with companies, now, at the start of this school year, and a year from now. Join us to learn about the following:
    • Which types of in-person meetings are moving forward, and which ones are still a no-go;
    • How differences in district policy vary by size of the school district, region of the country, and other factors;
    • Data on how companies’ plans to send staff to in-person events compares with district plan;
    • Insights on EdWeek Market Brief’s reporting and data about the instructional model (fully in-person, vs. hybrid) that districts intend to follow in the fall, and how that could impact company practices.

The American Rescue Plan, signed into law by President Biden last month, provides historic amounts of emergency financial relief to schools – roughly $130 billion, which school districts are expected to spend over the next three years. How are districts going to make use of this aid to address learning loss, priorities in professional development, curriculum, classroom assessment, technology, social-emotional learning, and other areas? This webinar will look at what the stimulus will mean for education companies working in school districts, and what K-12 officials will expect from those vendors. We will discuss and shed light on:
    • The results of a nationally representative survey of district officials on how they expect to spend the new stimulus funding
    • Additional EdWeek Market Brief original research on districts’ specific preferences for addressing learning loss – a core element of the federal aid – over the coming year
    • Insights from federal policy experts and district officials on rules on how the aid can be spent, and how the money is likely to be used by schools

Many school district officials have said they’re wary of receiving over-the-top sales pitches as they scramble to keep up with their many obligations during COVID-19. At the same time, EdWeek Market Brief’s research shows that many school officials are proactively reaching out to companies in search of products that will help them navigate remote, hybrid, and in-person learning. In this environment, what does an effective sales pitch look like—and what are the kinds of messages and outreach that companies should avoid? In this webinar, attendees will come away with the following:
    • Insights on what districts want from their FIRST meeting with a company during COVID, drawing from EdWeek Market Brief surveys of K-12 officials;
    • Intel on how districts pare down the list of companies they’re considering hiring

    • Information on how much time districts spend researching new education companies;

The coronavirus is fueling major concerns about the social-emotional learning needs of the nation’s students, as they’ve returned to schools immersed in unfamiliar approaches to remote or hybrid learning. To find out what role districts are counting on education companies to play, EdWeek Market Brief fielded a nationally representative survey of district administrators and school principals around the country on what kind of products they most need to help SEL during this critical time. In this quarterly briefing, we’ll break down the survey results, looking at the following key questions:
    • What specific features districts want in SEL products?
    • What factors lead districts to renew contracts with SEL providers?
    • Which district officials make decisions about buying SEL products?
    • How do districts “assess” students’ SEL status or well-being
    • And more….
