The NIDE Standards of Excellence Council was created to provide practitioners’ perspectives in support of NIDE’s mission of education, training, and advocacy. Serving as an advisory body for key projects and strategic initiatives, the Council meets periodically and undertakes special assignments that advance the NIDE mission. Council members review publications, participate in podcasts, and actively represent NIDE, drawing on the group’s collective expertise.
