SUMMARY:The Business of Brokering
DESCRIPTION:Join Claire Han\, Founder and CEO of MyEducationResearcher\, and Joana Idokwo\, Founder of Mind Investors\, for this informal conversation about the possibilities and challenges of entrepreneurship as knowledge brokers in education. If you are an independent consultant or entrepreneur or considering entering the sector\, don’t miss this opportunity. You’re invited to join the discussion to learn\, ask questions\, and network with other knowledge brokers.  \nRegister Here\nAbout our featured guests: \nClaire Han is passionate about communicating meta-analytic results to practitioners and policymakers by encouraging understanding without ignoring complexity. Her web application\, MyEducationResearcher\, automates many of the time-intensive search\, screening\, and analytic steps by codifying What Works Clearinghouse procedures into precise and clear Python commands. Her research has been funded by the National Science Foundation and the Department of Education (U.S.). Claire holds a Ph.D in Education from Johns Hopkins University. At Hopkins\, she developed methodological expertise in meta-analysis and research synthesis working alongside Dr. Robert Slavin. \nJoana Idokwo is the founder of Mind Investors\, where she works across Africa\, the U.S.\, and the Middle East to help young people\, especially those with disabilities\, successfully transition from school to work and life. Her work focuses on creating access to real-world learning through Career & Technical Education (CTE) and TVET\, while also bridging gaps between policy and community needs. She is an active member of the Council for Exceptional Children. Whether collaborating with schools\, nonprofits\, or government agencies\, she brings warmth\, creativity\, and deep commitment to equity. Joana also serves as an Ambassador for the Education Knowledge Broker Network. She is passionate about making education more inclusive\, practical\, and empowering.
