Online via Zoom

The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) is one of the world's leading independent educational research organisations, and their professional learning workshops bring that research expertise directly to educators. This full-day online workshop, delivered via Zoom from 9am to 3pm AEST, is facilitated by ACER's team including Matt Bongetti, Alex Gates, and Daniel O'Loughlin. ACER's professional learning activities span conferences, workshops, courses, and extended programs designed for primary, secondary, and tertiary level teachers and leaders, coaches, support staff, policy makers, and data professionals. Their offerings are grounded in ACER's own research into what makes teaching and learning effective, and they're particularly well-known for their work on assessment literacy, including the Progressive Achievement Tests (PAT) suite. Whether you're looking to strengthen your understanding of assessment data, implement evidence-based instructional strategies, or build your school's capacity for data-informed decision making, ACER's professional learning provides a direct connection to cutting-edge educational research translated into practical classroom and school-level strategies.
