Quality First
We leverage experience and knowledge.
As former funders and organization leaders, we’ve been underwhelmed by too many consultants, unrealistic plans and lackluster strategies.
When you hire Education First, you are hiring a team with deep education know-how. Our skill set ranges from producing incisive policy analyses to implementing the most delicate political strategies. We can engage at any stage of a project—from initial research and planning to execution on the ground. To help our clients achieve their goals, we combine our extensive experience and knowledge about policy and advocacy to analyze best practices, consider policy opportunities, recommend political strategies and develop supporting communications.
Our clients are our partners.
We see ourselves as thought partners with our clients. We value relationships that are grounded in honesty and inquiry. We believe that an open exchange of ideas, supported by careful vetting, can produce dynamic results. We encourage our clients to think expansively yet be pragmatic, take smart but reasonable risks and learn from others.
Our services include Strategic Planning and Counsel; Research and Public Policy Analysis; and Advocacy and Public Affairs.
