About Us

ILC Research and Evaluation is an evaluation consulting organization specializing in program evaluation, research, and assessment. We are not an early learning or tutoring center — we are a learning organization because every program and service we support includes embedded evaluation, so our clients can measure impact and improve outcomes.

ILC Research and Evaluation

At ILC Research and Evaluation, our core expertise is evaluation consulting and program evaluation. We are not an early learning center: our tutorial services are programs for individual students, while our STEM programs — and yours — are built for groups of students. We are an evaluation organization built around a learning philosophy: we believe evaluation and learning are inseparable. That is why we provide program evaluation, evaluation consulting, research, and assessment services — and why the programs and services we support include embedded evaluation components that help organizations improve performance, educators strengthen instruction, families understand student needs, and communities make informed decisions. Through this learning-centered approach, we also help organizations build their own internal evaluation capacity so they can continue measuring impact and improving outcomes long after our engagement ends.
