Where Deep Expertise Meets Passion and Drive

Intentionality in everything

We are industry-leading experts committed to intentionally listening to and partnering with our clients. Staying at the forefront of industry and learner data, we intentionally blend evidence with a practical eye for progress. We intentionally cultivate relationships that allow us to engage deeply, over time, in trusting, results-centered initiatives, and our work touches every aspect of the education system–working with students, parents, teachers, institutions, funders and state and federal policy leaders.

Embrace continuous learning

We know that opportunities borne from educational attainment improve lives and transform communities. At HCM, we are lifelong learners dedicated to improving learning opportunities for all, and particularly for historically marginalized and minoritzed populations.

Approach with nimbleness

We tailor our work to meet our clients’ unique circumstances and goals while utilizing our team’s deep expertise and understanding of the policies and practices that shape our education and training systems.

Operate through a DEI lens

We believe in leading and facilitating through an inclusive and collaborative process. We build into our work with clients a commitment to authentically engage the voices of learners and the lived experiences of leaders who have a stake in the policies and practices being developed. Equitable outcomes are at the heart and center of our work.

A focus on impact

We partner for the long-haul with clients that share our mission. Defining up front the impact we collectively seek, HCM’s team offers each client sharp analysis, deep policy acumen, clear advice and counsel, and creative problem solving.

Collaborative thought partners

We know changes in organizations, agencies, and public policy only happen when stakeholders coalesce around a shared mission. As strategic thought-partners, we leverage our vast network of partnerships at the institutional, state and federal levels to build the will and acumen for lasting improvements in educational opportunity.
