ETS Launches Praxis Foundations, a Next-Generation Solutions Suite for Educator Readiness

Published

on

PRINCETON, N.J., Aug. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ETS announced today the launch of Praxis Foundations, a next-generation educator readiness solutions suite that expands how educator preparation programs and school districts understand and support teachers.

Praxis Foundations offers early insights into the academic readiness, professional dispositions, durable skills and AI literacy of educators. These elements combine in a flexible, modular solutions suite that supports teacher success, provides meaningful insights for program effectiveness and continuous improvement, and better prepares educators for today’s classrooms. Praxis Foundations is designed to equip teachers to meet evolving classroom needs and support retention while laying the foundation for long-term growth and development.

“Educator success requires a rich understanding of the skills and attributes that contribute to classroom readiness,” said Vince Dean, Associate Vice President of Praxis at ETS. “Praxis Foundations provides a multi-dimensional view with research-backed tools that address key indicators rarely addressed in structured ways through traditional preparation programs or alternative pathways. This gives faculty and district leaders data to target professional learning and match new teachers with mentors.”

Designed to holistically support teacher development, Praxis Foundations aligns with proven frameworks for effective teaching and workforce readiness. Through four integrated components, the solutions suite generates insights that are directly applicable and research-informed:

Academic Content Modules strengthen foundational knowledge in reading, writing and mathematics, verifying that candidates have the requisite academic skills appropriate for teachingPersonal Skills and Qualities (PSQ) Inventory provides insight into professional dispositions associated with educator success, including collaboration, dependability, composure and resourcefulnessDurable Skills Simulations provides educators with opportunities to navigate complex interactions, allowing them to practice applying their skills in realistic classroom scenarios focused on measuring communication, collaboration and critical thinkingAdapt AI Assessment which helps prepare educators for AI-supported classrooms by measuring their AI literacy skills, helping them to reflect, reason and apply AI knowledge in practice

Together, these components provide an interconnected view of educator readiness that augment traditional measures of subject matter expertise while offering the flexibility to align implementation with the specific goals and priorities of individual institutions. The data and insights provided by each module, and taken together, support institutions in making more informed decisions, target development and drive stronger educator outcomes.

Praxis Foundations builds upon decades of experience supporting states, educator preparation programs and districts through trusted assessment solutions. Backed by ETS’s longstanding leadership in educator assessment, measurement science and large-scale program delivery, the ecosystem reflects deep partnerships with education leaders and a shared commitment to strengthening educator preparation. These relationships and insights enable Praxis to develop innovative, research-backed solutions that address the evolving needs of educators and the institutions that support them.

TMGM and Chelsea Football Club Extend Partnership into Fourth Year, Expanding into the Middle East

Published

on

By

SYDNEY, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TMGM and Chelsea Football Club today announced the extension of their partnership into a fourth year, with the collaboration expanding beyond Asia-Pacific into the Middle East.

Since 2023, TMGM has served as Chelsea FC’s Official Online Forex and CFD Trading Partner in Asia-Pacific. The extension advances a partnership spanning matchday visibility, original content and fan engagement.

Three Years of Shared Momentum

In 2026, the partnership reached a milestone when TMGM branding appeared on the back of Chelsea men’s match shirts during the FA Cup – a first in the club’s history. TMGM also joined Chelsea FC’s 2026 Asia-Pacific Pre-Season Tour as an Official Partner, with open training, pitch-side access and post-match tunnel experiences. The tour included a visit by Chelsea players Cole Palmer and João Pedro to TMGM’s Sydney headquarters.

Earlier in 2026, TMGM presented The Famous CFC in Bangkok, where hundreds of supporters attended a live match screening and an exclusive appearance by former Chelsea captain John Terry.

These milestones formed part of a wider programme of premium home-match hospitality, behind-the-scenes visits at Cobham and player-led content under TMGM’s “Trade like a lion” campaign.

A Broader Platform for Year Four

In year four, TMGM’s expanded regional rights will support brand visibility at Chelsea home fixtures, original content featuring players and legends, regional digital campaigns and a China-focused performance series. The programme will also continue through The Famous CFC in selected markets and offer TMGM clients further hospitality and behind-the-scenes access across Chelsea’s matchday, stadium and training environments.

“Over three years, our relationship with Chelsea FC has evolved from regional activations to high-profile moments, including visibility on the club’s FA Cup shirts and its Asia-Pacific tour,” said TMGM. “Entering our fourth year and extending into the Middle East creates opportunities to connect with more audiences through experiences that reflect the ambition of both organisations.”

Chelsea Football Club said: “TMGM has focused on bringing its clients and our supporters closer to the club through digital-first content and in-person events across Asia-Pacific to great effect. We are pleased to extend the partnership into a fourth year and look forward to building on its momentum across the region and also the Middle East.”

Ridgeway Pharmacy Statement Regarding Website Security Incident Involving Third-Party Vendor

Published

on

By

VICTOR, Mont., Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ridgeway Pharmacy, Ltd. (“Ridgeway”) is providing notice of an incident involving its pharmacy website, which was developed by a third-party vendor. Ridgeway identified operational issues on the website and promptly began an investigation with the assistance of external cybersecurity and forensic specialists. That investigation determined that a vulnerability in the vendor-supported website allowed an unknown third party to access the site using elevated privileges, and that certain information may have been accessible as a result. On August 21, 2026, Ridgeway determined that the information potentially involved may have included name, date of birth, address, prescription information, health information, insurance information, and, for a portion of the individuals, payment card information. Importantly, at no time did this incident involve Ridgeway’s internal systems.

Ridgeway takes the privacy and security of information seriously and holds the third parties that support its services to that same standard. Upon learning of this matter, Ridgeway secured and remediated the affected website, stood up a new platform, further restricted access, strengthened monitoring, implemented additional protections against unauthorized activity, and reported the incident to federal law enforcement.

Written notice has been mailed to individuals whose information may have been involved, and out of an abundance of caution Ridgeway is offering complimentary identity protection services through TransUnion, a leading identity protection provider. As a general precaution, individuals are encouraged to review their account statements, health plan explanations of benefits, and credit reports for any unfamiliar activity, to enroll in the complimentary services described in their notification letter, and to report any unusual activity to their financial institution.

Individuals with questions may call Ridgeway’s dedicated toll-free assistance line at 1-833-516-7133, available 8am – 8pm (ET).
