The Nevada Department of Education (NDE) is working on aligning the work we do in the department to align to the goals of our goals and vision for our department. The NDE will use data from a variety of sources to determine what staff are currently spending time on, what data we use determine areas of focus and if adjustments need to be made. The overriding objective of this project is to identify opportunities to improve the organizational efficiency and effectiveness of target areas in NDE. These opportunities will be evaluated in terms of the organizational structure, allocation of staff roles and responsibilities, the use of technology, the tracking and use of data to support decision-making, and streamlined work processes. The NDE seeks to evaluate different ways of providing services to be more efficient and impactful and ensure that it has the organizational capacity to conduct the required work. There are three areas targeted for this study: selected programs, overall NDE organization and staffing, and audit services.
