Assessment Center Outcome and Reporting Network (ACORN) Application

The Assessment Center Outcome and Reporting Network (ACORN) initiative is an effort to help selected assessment centers improve their data capacities and related capabilities. It includes training and technical assistance that will be provided to selected centers with the ultimate goals of helping centers improve their data and how they can use their data to track center performance and outcomes. More broadly, the project is also attempting to establish a more consistent state reporting system that aligns with the National Assessment Center Association's Assessment Center Framework and newly developed reporting system.

Please complete the following application for technical assistance to improve your assessment center’s capacity for performance and outcome data collection, analysis and reporting. Successful applicants will demonstrate a clear commitment to improving their assessment center’s data capacity.

The cost of participating in the cohort is $500 for NAC members and $1,200 for nonmembers. Centers will be invoiced following application approval.

The application must be submitted by January 17th, 2025 at 5:00 EST. If you have any questions, please contact Molli Cook at molli@nacassociation.org.
