Uncover dimensions of student potential.
Clarity, Depth, and Insight – For Today’s Learners
We build tools that help educators see beyond the transcript. Our assessments are designed to surface the deeper learning dispositions that shape how a student engages, adapts, and grows within a school environment. Grounded in global research and built for real-world use, our methods offer a clearer, more nuanced view of student potential – supporting educators in making well-rounded, student-centered decisions.
“What we measure shapes what we value – so we must measure what truly matters.”
Andreas Schleicher (OECD Director for Education and Skills)
What Everyday Metrics Can’t Always Reveal
Whether in admissions, placement, or enrichment, educators often rely on transcripts, interviews, and recommendations to understand student readiness. These tools offer valuable perspectives – but they may not fully capture how a student approaches learning itself.
Qualities like adaptability, intellectual engagement, self-direction, and responsiveness to feedback often surface only through experience or informal observation. Prism Assessments designs tools to bring those dimensions into focus – clearly, fairly, and in ways that support the decisions educators already make.
Prism Learner Profile
A 21st-century lens for identifying high-potential high school applicants
The Prism Learner Profile is a new assessment tool being designed by Prism Assessments to give admissions teams an earlier, structured lens into which applicants are most likely to succeed in and contribute to their school’s environment – complementing traditional materials like interviews and essays by filling critical gaps in how growth potential and cultural fit are assessed.
