Voyager Sopris Learning, Acadience Learning Expand Partnership
25 9월 2019 - 7:00PM
Voyager Sopris Learning and Acadience Learning today announced an
expanded partnership to deliver Acadience’s powerful and effective
PreK to high school assessment tools throughout the United States.
Voyager Sopris Learning will continue to serve as the exclusive
print distributor in the United States for Acadience Reading and
Acadience Math assessments.
“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with Acadience
Learning and enhance our relationship with founders and authors Dr.
Roland Good and Dr. Ruth Kaminski,” said Patrick Marcotte,
president, Voyager Sopris Learning. “The two companies have a
shared commitment to supporting educators and students, and this
expanded partnership will ensure greater access to evidence-based
assessment and instructional offerings.”
As the original authors of the DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of
Basic Early Literacy Skills) assessments, which have long been
available through Voyager Sopris Learning, Drs. Good and Kaminski
have been at the forefront of research and development of
assessments for more than 25 years. The authors recently changed
the name of their company from Dynamic Measurement Group to
Acadience Learning to bring all assessments under one comprehensive
suite of educational tools.
Dr. Good (president and director of research analysis) and Dr.
Kaminski (CEO/COO and director of research and development) said
they will continue to support the assessments they have authored
under the new Acadience Learning name and that there will be no
change in assessments—benchmark goals will remain as is, and scores
will be interpreted in the same way.
“We have had a longstanding partnership with Voyager Sopris
Learning and a shared vision of improving outcomes for students and
schools,” Dr. Good and Dr. Kaminski said. “We are proud to
have this partnership continue with Acadience Learning’s expanded
family of assessment tools and are excited to move together into
the future.”

Math, this measures early numeracy, computation and problem solving
for grades K–6 provides indicators of the essential skills every
