INSTITUTIONAL CONSULTING

What kind of institutional consulting does Jones & Associates do?  As many educational consultants as there are out there, there may be even more institutional "consultants" looking for your business.  Our institutional consulting is almost exclusively by word of mouth.  When approached by potential partners, we want to know if there is good chemistry between the parties and whether or not we believe Jones & Associates is the right fit for your situation.  We would rather walk away from the business than disappoint you and your constituents on the back end.   

Our institutional "fits" include:
Not surprisingly, a lot of experience + a wide range of teaching & administrative roles + different schools with unique missions = institutional services that will meet your demands.  
*There are some issues related to our institution-related services about which we wish to provide full transparency: 

  • Regarding families we serve, we try to foster a good relationship between our family clients and their children's educators; to be clear, we encourage as much communication as possible with their school.  Accordingly, beyond admissions work and one of the special circumstances mentioned on the "Educational Consulting" page, we don't directly interact with a school, its faculty, or other parents on their behalf. 
  • In our immediate location at the north end of the New Jersey shore, there is the potential for a conflict of interest as we have made decisions related to our own school-aged children, as well as the fact that we volunteer our time with a few local schools.  It is our goal to minimize such plausible conflicts and we will be happy to make clients aware of any that could be perceived to exist.   
  • Additionally, when travel is necessary, travel costs and a per diem would be additional expenses; only select days of the week are available. 
  • Chuck Jones holds a New Jersey School Administrator certificate of eligibility ("CE") and a Division Superintendent License in the Commonwealth of Virginia
