I was charged with creating a master plan for my district. The question has always been:
- How do I assess that?
- How can I demonstrate technical literacy in students?
- How can I demonstrate proficiency?
I had no way to assess or even estimate such information.

I had my team give the EdTechProfile surveys to:
We tracked their technology literacy which indirectly showed:
- How well educators were trained
- How well educators passed on their knowledge to the students
I used EdTechProfile to:
- Administer the surveys, forms and assessment modules
- Collect and manage the survey data
- Execute numerous aggregated reports based on my needs

Our reports showed:
- 99% of graduating seniors could use Microsoft Word
- 85% were proficient in spreadsheets (a 3% increase)
- 95% were able to conduct Internet searches and information retrievals (a 2% increase)
Benefits included:
- Rapid delivery of vital data
- Continuity and automation of a huge data collection and compliance task
- Confidential results to support the growth and retention for each teacher
- Ability to adjust training and professional development efforts based on assessment and survey results
- Reporting capacity that supports decision making at a local site, district, county, region, or state level
