ESSA: The Emerging Market for Ed-Tech Companies

Description:

The Every Student Succeeds Act – the nation’s main federal education law – is already having a major impact on school districts’ spending decisions. The law also sets new financial transparency requirements on districts to document how they’re spending money. This session breaks down how ESSA is shaping district behavior and their demands for ed-tech products and services, and how ed-tech companies can position themselves to respond to those needs.
