Your school or organization may qualify for discounts in several categories.  The examples below represent a few of the possibilities.  In addition, DISCOVER staff sometimes can facilitate a trade for services, or cooperative agreements between school/organizations, to reduce costs.  Check with your DISCOVER representative for more details.

• Progressive Discounts—Progressively larger discounts are available on some services when they are combined or scheduled consecutively.  For example, we encourage schools to schedule a series of workshops (rather than just one) and the cost per workshop decreases with each additional workshop scheduled.  In the same way, other services cost less when combined.  When scheduling an Assessment Training you might want to add a half or full day seminar or workshop.  In this case, the cost of the additional seminar or workshop usually can be reduced by about 25%. The exact amount of the discounts may vary according to which services are combined or consecutively scheduled, along with other details specific to your location. The DISCOVER representative will work with you to create the most cost effective plan.

• Quantity Discounts—Quantity discounts apply in areas such as the number of students Assessed (School-Based Assessment—Option 1 and Parent/Community-Based Assessment—Option 1), the number of Observers Candidates trained (School-Based Assessment—Option 2), the number of Assessment Forms and Tangram puzzle books ordered, and so forth.  A description of each quantity discounts appears with the pricing information for the respective service or product.

• Performance Discounts—DISCOVER rewards prompt payment with an early payment incentive.  Payments received within 30-days of the invoice date entitle the sender to a 5% discount off the invoice amount.

• Service Contracts—long-term service contracts offer the most comprehensive and cost-effective way of working with DISCOVER.  Service contracts typically are set up over periods lasting anywhere from several months to several years, and are designed to integrate with existing school or organization programs, to produce targeted outcomes.  Each plan is designed specifically for the location and can include any available DISCOVER services (or site-specific variations).
