Judah Leblang

Judah has been a staff member at PERG since 2000, and a senior associate since 2006. He has evaluated a variety of large and small projects and specializes in:

• Museum exhibits and websites
• Informal education and after-school programs
• Teacher professional development programs in mathematics, American history, and the humanities

During his time at PERG, Judah has collaborated with PERG staff and evaluation/research colleagues at several museums and research centers, including TERC and the Boston Museum of Science.

Prior work
Judah brings an extensive background in education, writing and cross-cultural communication to his evaluation work. His prior experience as a teacher of deaf children and a sign language interpreter influence his commitment to meet clients "where they are" and help them assess their needs and establish clear program goals.
