The ccer data team maintains an education data warehouse, produces analytic dashboards and conducts predictive analytics and qualitative research. The team produces reports, online dashboards, community data tools, and conducts analysis and research to support road map project partner strategies to improve outcomes for children from cradle to college and career. We are building an increasing focus supporting data use and data coaching. There has also been an increasing focus on partnering with community members and organizations using a community collaborative research approach. Ccer helps to ensure there is consistent communications to support the collective work. The ccer communications team uses the road map project website, several social media accounts, email newsletters and other tools in the communication work. The focus of communications is both internal to the road map project, which includes hundreds of partners, and external to the broader public. The ccer team plays various roles across the road map project in the work to develop and implement strategies. Often ccer plays a convener and facilitator role. Increasingly, the ccer team will be working with the road map community leadership team and others to support strong accountability for results.
