New! School Accreditation: Collecting and Reviewing Student Work

Schools going through the accreditation process (such as NEASC) need to show how student and teacher work is connected to the school's mission.

You'll see how schools get their whole faculty to participate, and how they presented the work to impress the visiting team.

How can you bring your assessments to the 21st Century? These FREE sessions will give you an overview of how Richer Picture® Digital Portfolio systems are used in Elementary and Secondary schools.
