Goldstar Learning is a Chicago-based EdTech software company founded in 2000 to answer education’s evolving assessment, reporting and data-analysis needs. We provide K-12 educators with industry leading, web-based tools that assist in raising student achievement and provide real-time access to student achievement data used to shape their instruction. Our flagship product, Mastery Manager, is utilized in K-12 schools across the country in both large and small districts, as well as in public, private and charter schools.
We’re serious about being passionate for what we do. Our passion for learning and living drives us to innovate, create, relax and enjoy... life, work and all the connecting moments in between. Hey, if you have to spend 40 hours a week with a group of people, you gotta have fun doing it!
When you are happy at work, you’re happy at home. We believe that everyone deserves a fulfilling work experience so they can enjoy their time away from work.
Build your own space: You choose your technology. We want you to work efficiently and comfortably and will give you the tools to do so. And you don’t have to take it sitting down: we have adjustable height (stand up) desks, so you can stand up for your space too.
Our headquarters is located in Chicago’s River North tech hub, just north of the Merchandise Mart. You’re within walking distance to transportation, restaurants, night life, river walk, museums, shopping.
