The Strategic Data Project (SDP) is an initiative of the Center for Education Policy Research at Harvard University. The SDP Fellowship program helps school system leaders use data and evidence in strategic decision-making to improve public education. By placing fellows in school systems and education organizations across the United States, SDP provides a unique entry point for passionate quantitative researchers and data strategists who want to make a difference.
The Project is currently looking to hire a fellow here in NJ to work with a school district north of Newark. This person will support research and evaluation of parent and family engagement initiatives. The ideal candidate should be proficient in various research methods, as well as stakeholder management and relationship-building skills. Spanish language proficiency is preferred, but not required.
