The National Institute for Early Education Research
(NIEER) is dedicated to improving early childhood education and care for all
children through research to inform policy and practice. The institute counts
many distinguished Graduate School of Education (GSE) faculty members as participants, and has a strong
multidisciplinary research faculty representing education, psychology, child
development, policy, and economics. NIEER offers independent research-based
analysis, technical assistance, and professional development to policymakers
throughout New Jersey, across the nation, and internationally. NIEER's studies
have been published in top scientific journals, as well as nonacademic formats
designed to meet the needs of policymakers and practitioners for timely,
accurate, and succinct reports focused on issues of current concern. NIEER
provides technical assistance to elected and appointed officials, their staff,
and program administrators. Advancing transparency and accountability in public
policy related to early childhood education is a particular focus of the
institute.
