“With responsiveness and flexibility that meets unique needs and a thorough process that examines both products and the management systems that support them, UL’s experience and expertise in functional safety (FS) ensures accuracy and assurance, insight, and integrity.”

It is deeply rewarding to write case studies about American Education Corporation's A+LS curriculum software (A+). The software is used across the country by K12 school systems to assist kids with credit recovery and other important educational priorities. The use of A+ at Spring Creek Elementary (Provo, Utah) is a good example of this work. At Spring Creek, the school's special education students-behind one or more grade levels in math and reading-use A+ software and other American Education Corporation software tools as an effective means to "catch up" to their peers.
