As part of (my/our) registration for listing in the Registry of Evaluation Researchers for the What
Works Clearinghouse (WWC), (I/we) understand that the purpose of the registry is to provide a

(I/We) commit to using the highest standards of scientific evidence, as defined by the WWC,1 for
answering questions about the effectiveness of educational interventions. Furthermore, (I/we) agree

the resulting implications for making appropriate causal claims.
