EVALUATION AND TRAINING INSTITUTE

Verification: the EIN provided (23-7396648) matches the Evaluation & Training Institute’s public nonprofit records and the organization’s own filings and web presence. Evaluation & Training Institute (ETI), founded in 1974, is a Los Angeles–area nonprofit that provides applied research, program evaluation, and training focused on education and human services. ETI works with federal and state education agencies, school districts, foundations, and community organizations to design rigorous evaluations (including randomized and quasi-experimental designs), conduct implementation research, and produce actionable reports for policymakers and practitioners. In the past 2–3 years ETI has been active as a contracted evaluator on multi-year projects (including a five-year federal i3 Rural UPSTART study and statewide evaluations for the Utah State Office of Education) and on district-level studies such as arts-integration and K–3 literacy technology projects. Those engagements emphasize measured outcomes for school readiness, K–3 literacy gains, and reduction of summer learning loss, and have supplied empirical evidence used by state and district decision-makers.
