Chief Technology Officer Jobs in Boca Raton, FL (NOW HIRING)

Chief Operating Officer Instructional Empowerment exists to transform teaching and learning so every student has access to rigorous, engaging instruction that prepares them for success in school and life. We partner with school districts across the country to improve instructional practice, strengthen leadership, and produce measurable gains in student achievement.

Today we are a mid-size company with approximately 100 employees serving districts nationwide. Tomorrow, we intend to become the premier partner for instructional transformation in K-12 education.
