Teacher Hiring
3D Group helps school districts use highly valid predictive methods to screen for the best teachers available. We provide districts customized tools based on strong research about what makes effective teachers and we train district staff on how to use the tools to make the best hiring decisions possible. Not only do we provide the tools for hiring better teachers, we also validate these hiring tools by correlating actual teacher performance with performance on the tools so there is solid evidence to support the validity of hiring decisions.
