Founded in 2014 and led by Jeremy Rogoff, CEO, Eric Krupski, CTO, Victoria Kinzig, COO, KickUp provides a SaaS-based analytics platform for professional development teams to synthesize feedback, take action to support teachers, and report on impact over time.
Users can customize pre-loaded goals to align with their district or region’s strategic goals, pull together real-time data from surveys, walkthroughs or siloed spreadsheets to turn complex information into action steps, slice data to see everything from high-level district data to specific teacher information, and make the information immediately actionable for teachers, coaches, school leaders, technology teams, and district personnel.
