similar platforms is essential. Strong project management,
analytical, and communication skills are a must, and you should be
comfortable working both independently and within a team.
Experience working with K-12 school districts, especially in
enrollment forecasting, is highly valued though not required.
Familiarity with tools like Python, R, SPSS, SAS, Stata, and SQL
