Staffing

To tackle each project Foresight assembles a team of professionals with expertise in program evaluation, curriculum development, or instructional design, including online programming. The particular kind of work required for each project decides the members of each team. Typically they are professors and graduate students from colleges and universities or agency personnel. Their application of knowledge, skills and a serious work ethic help Foresight produce timely, high quality results and success for clients.
