Our Research Has Been Reviewed and Certified by Independent Organizations
We believe evidence should hold up to outside scrutiny, not just our own. When an independent organization reviews our research and publishes its findings, we list that recognition here. This page will grow as we complete additional reviews.
EduEvidence Effectiveness Certification, Silver (2026)
In May 2026, LXD Research, an independent research firm that evaluates educational programs using methods aligned to the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), reviewed All Learners Network's published research. LXD Research rated the evidence ESSA Tier 3, "Promising Evidence," the tier awarded when a program has at least one properly designed study showing statistically significant, positive results, and when a third-party organization has reviewed that study for ESSA validation.
Based on that review, EduEvidence, the International Certification of Evidence of Impact in Education, awarded All Learners Network its Effectiveness Silver Certification. The certification covers All Learners Network's professional development services, All Learners Online, the All Learners Lesson Structure, and the High Leverage Concepts framework that grounds all three. It draws on published research from multiple district partnerships, including efficacy studies from Thompson School District in Colorado and Winooski School District in Vermont, alongside All Learners Network's broader impact evaluation across ten districts.
The certification is valid through September 2028.
