How we measure impact

Grant makers ask for method, not adjectives. Here is how we know whether a learner actually learned something - and how we report it.

What we measureSigns learned and retained, lesson completion, streak retention, and progress against CEFR-aligned levels - per country, not just in aggregate.
How we measure itIn-product learning analytics combined with UX research sessions and teacher review, so numbers are always read next to the people behind them.
Who reviews itDeaf teachers and Deaf curriculum designers that know their national sign language and Deaf community.
What we reportReach, learning outcomes and accessibility impact per programme, shared with partners and funders on request.
