The Council of Corporate and School Partnerships conducted research with the National Association of Partners in Education to gather data from the field. Seeking out individuals currently engaged in business and school partnerships, more than 300 school administrators were interviewed, as well as business executives at more than 50 companies. These individuals helped identify what worked for them, what was important to them, and challenges they faced.
The Council then translated the findings into four themes and then ultimately into the eight Guiding Principles for Business and School Partnerships. The Council noted that there were businesses interested in working with schools, but uncertain where to begin. They also saw that there were schools working with businesses in relationships that weren't maximizing their potential for collaboration. Using the research data, the Guidelines were developed to help partners work together. Following is a summary of the research data and findings.
