WHO WE ARE
The NGA Center’s Education Division
The NGA Center’s Education Division (‘the division’) provides information, research synthesis, policy analysis, technical assistance and resources to governors and their staff on education topics spanning early childhood through college and career. At the center of the division’s work are three core principles: equity, alignment, and data-driven. The division focuses its work on five key initiatives: whole child; personalized education; human capital; standards, assessments, and accountability; and governance and finance. Each initiative includes a range of focus areas that align with the needs of governors and their education policy advisors.
NATIONAL GOVERNORS ASSOCIATION
The National Governors Association was founded in 1908 to serve as the collective voice of the nation’s governors in the capitol and to help develop innovative policies across the country.
