Our StoryNOVA Education Consultants is an education cooperative that helps districts and charters meet their educational goals. From district and program strategic planning to providing contracted services, we partner with you to meet every challenge that comes with providing an outstanding education to Minnesota's students.NOVA Education Consultants was founded by a group of educator consultants who saw the need for impactful school services and the lack of an equitable model that served educators and schools well. They envisioned an organization that partnered with schools and educators in a meaningful way to deliver an exceptional experience.Our ModelWith an emphasis on transparency and outcomes, we're able to attract top-notch educator consultants and deliver outstanding service to our clients. This means better outcomes for Minnesota's students, staff, and schools. We care about our educator consultants, our clients, and our community. Operating as a cooperative means we're owned and operated by our member consultants and overseen by a volunteer board of directors. NOVA handles business details for our consultants, donates 5 percent of net profits to charity, and divides remaining profit among our members. Investing in our consultants and our community is a win-win.Our OutcomesThanks to our lean business model, we're able to offer better pricing for our clients and better rates of pay for our member consultants. We offer many experienced and skilled consultants in our network with expertise in areas such as special education leadership, school psychology, and applied behavior analysis. Our educator consultants average 10 to 15 years experience in the education field and form long-term partnerships with the clients they serve. All of this means greater impact in our schools and better opportunities for educators.
