Bio
Stefanie Connolly
I had the privilege of reporting to Elizabeth during my time at PCG. Elizabeth is a skilled manager, recognizing the strengths of her team and strategically utilizing them. She regularly works with team members to develop their skills and help them achieve long term career goals. She has a keen understanding of marketing and sales, being able to fully understand client's needs and making the appropriate recommendations for services. These skills, coupled with her communication, integrity, and work ethic make Elizabeth a true partner to all she works with.
Jodi Roseman, Ed.D.
I have known Elizabeth for over 12 years. During that time we partnered on implementing and maintaining a web-based system for special education management in the School District of Philadelphia. The system allowed users to create documents that met with federal and state regulations while simultaneously meeting district mandated compliance obligations. The process of embracing an electronic solution was a paradigm shift for this large urban district. Elizabeth’s role was leading central office and school based staff through understanding the workflows, analyzing and supporting implementation plans, providing professional development before, during and after the project, and managing the project through various phases of growth. Due to the fact that Elizabeth is client-centered, involved at every level of development and implementation, a strong leader with a high level of respect for her clients and an exemplary level of professionalism, our time together was productive and meaningful.

EdCredible was founded to provide transparency across the K12 marketplace by allowing educators to rate and write reviews about products and services currently being used by school districts across the country. Our goal is to provide all users of K12 products and services -parents, students, teachers, technology professionals, curriculum professionals, assessment professionals, and administrators at all levels- with the ability to share openly with the K12 community how they rate vendors systems and services. This includes: software products, hardware, systems, services, and more. Our platform provides an unbiased source of information on 'how well systems actually meet needs' and 'how well service providers do their jobs' from users that actually use these systems and services on a daily basis. EdCredible provides administrators, technology professionals, RFP Committees, and individual users with reliable ratings and references from users across the K12 community. http://www.Edcredible.com Show less
