What We Offer

Linking Your State Assessment to Quantile Measures

You can link any state assessment with Quantile Framework. Assessments that report Quantile measures can be used by educators and parents to personalize learning for students. Because Quantile measures are on a single scale from primary through secondary mathematics, they can also be used to track student progress over time.

To link your state math assessment,  our team of skilled psychometricians and researchers works with you and your testing contractor to recruit a sample of students to participate in the study. Once data is collected and the study is performed, our team delivers a technical report that provides the Quantile conversion table and summarizes the analysis.

When the report is approved and a signed licensing agreement is in place, you can begin reporting Quantile measurements from your state assessments. If your state is working with an assessment publisher whose test reports Quantile measures, you already have access to Quantile measures for your students.
