National Center and State Collaborative

National Center and State Collaborative (NCSC) is a multi-state collaborative hosted by the National Center on Educational Outcomes (NCEO) from the University of Minnesota to design an alternate assessment based on the new Common Core Standards. The NCSC builds on the work begun here at the University of Kentucky under the National Alternate Assessment Center (NAAC). The Alternate Assessment group at the Human Development Institute is charged with installing teacher professional development communities of practice in nineteen states including the District of Columbia and the Pacific entities.
