Our Mission
The mission of CEPA is to inform educational leaders and
policymakers on issues related to the development, implementation
and consequences of education policies. CEPA examines policies
through multiple perspectives, paying particular attention
to the impact of policies on social justice and educational
equity across P-20 educational settings.
What We Do
CEPA provides assistance to districts, schools, agencies,
and organizations through policy research and evaluation.
Through the sponsorship of conferences and forums, the
center also brings together key leaders to discuss important
policy topics.
Who We Are

educational leadership and policy. In addition, CEPA maintains affiliations with
other organizations and scholars who engage in our work. CEPA Associates have a range
of experience, and include former classroom teachers, administrators, and research
analysts. CEPA Associates have advanced expertise in quantitative and qualitative
research methods and are well equipped to conduct field research and large database
