Overall Rating

Recognition affirms the company's commitment to providing teachers with high-quality, evidence-based solutions to support all students, including those with dyslexia

LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill., Oct. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- 95 Percent Group LLC, the trusted source for high-quality, proven literacy solutions, recently earned accreditation from the International Dyslexia Association (IDA) for its Top 10 Tools professional learning course and 95 Reading Achievement Program (RAP). These two programs were recognized for their alignment with the science of reading, structured literacy, and IDA Knowledge and Practice Standards (KPS) for teachers of reading.

IDA accreditation is a rigorous process that evaluates whether educator preparation programs meet the highest standards in literacy instruction, particularly for students with dyslexia. The recognition is especially notable for 95 RAP, which received Accreditation PLUS with KPEERI (Knowledge and Practice Examination for Effective Reading Instruction), the highest level of distinction awarded by IDA.

Top 10 Tools by 95 Percent Group is a compact and comprehensive course that immerses educators in the science of reading research and structured literacy practices. Educators learn about current developments in literacy education as well as evidence-aligned instruction strategies they can immediately implement in the classroom. It equips all educators with structured frameworks for improving reading and writing instruction across grade levels, ultimately raising the quality of literacy education schoolwide.

95 RAP is a Tier 3 solution designed to identify and target foundational skill gaps to overcome barriers for students who need intensive support, including those with dyslexia. Through fast-paced and motivating small group instruction, as well as robust data and activity management, 95 RAP helps teachers track individual student progress in phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, spelling, vocabulary, and comprehension—so they can provide direct, explicit mastery-based instruction for challenged readers.

"For educators, this accreditation from IDA is a critical indicator of quality. It provides the assurance that our programs, including the highly regarded Top 10 Tools and 95 RAP, meet the gold standard for preparing teachers to support all students in their classrooms," said Laura Stewart, Chief Academic Officer of 95 Percent Group. "We're proud of this recognition that affirms our mission to evidence-aligned approaches that help teachers expand literacy access for all, including students with dyslexia."
