In 1998, NAGC developed the Pre-K – Grade 12 Gifted Program Standards which were designed to assist school districts in examining the quality of their programming for gifted learners. The NAGC Program Standards detail a framework that include both minimum standards and exemplary standards in seven key areas: Program Design, Program Administration and Management, Student Identification, Curriculum and Instruction, Socio-Emotional Guidance and Counseling, Professional Development, and Program Evaluation. Districts throughout the United States use the standards for both evaluating and improving programs and services.
