In addition, because law professors and staff have little to no familiarity with learning outcomes or the rigorous process they entail, we faced significant challenges dealing with misinformation and skepticism. EWRG was able to help us with designing learning outcomes and standards-based assessments for law school.
EWRG expertise was a direct fit for the project, from subject matter knowledge to organizational and research ability. Also, a seamless ability to work with our team and our team dynamic. In addition, EWRG helped us communicate clearly to our stakeholders and cut through the misinformation. EWRG has a solid work support and effective teamwork.
Since completing the project with EWRG, we have a comprehensive set of learning outcomes schools can use as a model for standards-based instruction and assessment, based on the skills, competencies, and characteristics we isolated in our own research as being necessary for new lawyers. We would recommend EWRG to any company or individual because of their excellent research and evaluation skills.
"Law schools have little to no knowledge or experience using standards-based assessments, so we were starting from scratch when we began with EWRG."
Embraced Wisdom stood out because of their familiarity with the legal market needs for new attorneys, which directly tied in with our law school admissions needs. They were the biggest help due to their commitment and their ability to listen and probe questions for what we were trying to accomplish.
Since finishing this project we have been able to have a systematic approach to our waitlist admissions process, and compiling data that EWRG is analyzing for us so we can assess the effectiveness of our approach. EWRG has a genuine interest in helping the client through very active listening and helping to frame issues and approaches/solutions in a clear and manageable way.
"Southwestern needed help designing questions and rubric for admissions waitlist interviews and Embraced Wisdom was the perfect place to achieve this goal."
