USA-based Student Education Diagnostics (SED) has announced the launch of its natural intelligence and neuroscience-based learning diagnostics platform in India. It is designed to analyse how students learn, identify academic strengths and learning gaps, and support personalised development pathways. Developed as an assessment and learning intelligence platform, SED analyses how individual students process information and apply concepts. Using brain-based assessments, the platform identifies learning styles, strengths, and areas that need support. It maps cognitive patterns and academic performance to generate personalised academic roadmaps, allowing educators and families to address learning gaps early while strengthening existing competencies. Srinesh V, Founder of Student Education Diagnostics, said, “Across classrooms, many students labelled as underperforming are often simply misunderstood. Conventional assessments tend to measure outcomes, but they rarely explain how a student learns. Through SED, we aim to introduce a neuroscience-based diagnostic approach that helps schools and families understand individual learning patterns, identify gaps earlier, and guide students toward clearer academic pathways.” The launch was announced during the SED Learning Intelligence Summit, which brought together educators and academic experts to discuss how learning diagnostics can support earlier identification of student learning gaps and guide more informed academic development. The event featured Joseph Salazar, M.S. in Engineering and Management in Aerospace, University of New Orleans; Jacqueline M. Klemke, MBA, Frankfurt University and Mental Health and Well-being Specialist; Dr. Sedighe Zamani Roodsari, PhD, M.Ed., Auburn University; and Eric Sambaluk, Curriculum Advisor. First Time in India – A Historic Launch STUDENT EDUCATION DIAGNOSTICS (SED) Revolutionising Learning with Natural Intelligence & Neuroscience PRESS NOTE The platform integrates neuroscience-based academic diagnostics with structured student tracking tools. These include early identification of learning gaps, SAT- and ACT-aligned frameworks, US-based certification pathways, and a 360-degree system that enables educators and parents to track student progress over time. Speaking on the India launch, Ashli Sambaluk, CEO, Student Education Diagnostics; M.A. – Foreign Languages, University of North Texas, said, “India has one of the world’s largest student populations, yet most systems still measure performance without fully understanding how each student learns. Bringing SED to India is about changing that starting point. By applying neuroscience-based diagnostics, we can help educators and families identify learning strengths and gaps much earlier, and create academic pathways aligned with global benchmarks and future careers.” Ms. Seema Boppana, Director, Sri Chaitanya Educational Institutions, who attended the summit, expressed keen interest in this new initiative. She stated that understanding students’ learning patterns through neuroscientific approaches can significantly strengthen the education system. She added that initiatives leaning towards Natural Intelligence will help identify students’ learning gaps at an early stage and enable institutions to provide more personalized and effective academic support. Dr. Ganesanathan Geathiswaran, Deputy High Commissioner of Sri Lanka to Southern India, appreciated the SED initiative for its forward-thinking approach to understanding children’s learning patterns through neuroscience and natural intelligence. He expressed that such a model has strong potential to transform education systems and extended an invitation to the SED team to visit Sri Lanka to explore its implementation and impact further. The launch was also graced by eminent education leaders, institutional heads, and esteemed guests, reflecting a collective commitment towards advancing the future of education. On this occasion, Student Education Diagnostics (SED) announced its intent to enter into strategic educational partnerships with leading educationists and institutional heads across India. The proposed collaborations include Mr. Suresh Chander, State President, Haryana Progressive Schools Conference (HPSC); Mr. P. K. Sambal, Founder of American Eduglobal School; and Dr. Jagjit Singh Dhuri, President of the Federation of Private Schools & Association of Punjab and Joint Association of Colleges. These partnerships aim to bring advanced scientific approaches such as Natural Intelligence and Neuroscience into mainstream education, enabling institutions to better understand students’ learning patterns, identify learning gaps early, and deliver more personalized and effective academic support. With the India launch, SED plans to expand its engagement with educators and institutions, building on its presence in the United States, Vietnam, and Georgia, to introduce neuroscience-based learning diagnostics that support personalized student development. About Student Education Diagnostics (SED): Student Education Diagnostics (SED) is a neuroscience-based assessment platform designed to understand how each child learns, identify strengths and learning gaps, and create personalized growth pathways. The organization works with educators and academic experts across the United States, India, Vietnam, and Georgia. The SED website will be officially launched on March 19 in Hyderabad, between 12:00 PM and 12:30 PM, marking a significant milestone in its mission to transform student learning through scientific approaches.
