The Intel Education Initiative seeks to form a trusted partnership with ministries of education in countries across the world to support educational reform by integrating technology into project-based learning environments. As part of the partnership, Intel also offers a portfolio of teacher professional development programs. The Intel Education Initiative has consistently invested in the evaluation of the Essentials Course worldwide, both to inform the continuous improvement of the program and its implementation model, and to document and demonstrate the impact of the program on its teacher participants. This report on the global evaluation of the Essentials Course draws on data from both quantitative evaluations done in many countries and qualitative reports that are often part of the local evaluation.
