Pricing
Schoolwide Strategy engagements are priced to reflect the scope, duration, and level of support required.

Pricing is based on factors such as the nature of the work, number of stakeholders involved, format (on site or virtual), and timeline. After an initial discovery conversation, ADVIS provides a clear proposal outlining the recommended scope, engagement approach, deliverables, and exact pricing.

Each proposal is designed to align with your school’s goals, leadership needs, and budget. Pricing is shared in full before any work begins.
