Description

An exciting opportunity to join our team and play an important role in the Victorian Academy of Teaching and Leadership (Academy).

At the Academy, we are passionate about meaningful and exciting work that has an impact on education and student outcomes.

Our shared purpose is to create and offer evidence-informed professional learning programs, events and initiatives designed to take Victoria's highly skilled teachers and school leaders from great to exceptional and advance the quality and status of teaching and school leadership.

We care about the quality of our work, demonstrate collective responsibility for continuous improvement and support each other to do the very best we can every day to achieve our goals.

The Academy is a learning organisation that provides opportunities for employees to grow. We have a positive culture that we are building together, where people feel supported, valued and heard.

The Evidence and Evaluation Centre (EEC) captures insights about professional learning and practitioner inquiry to measure impact and inform system and thought leadership.

The research, evaluation and data supports the implementation of a quality management approach to high quality professional learning, and inform robust advice to the Secretary and Minister about system reform objectives and associated policy reforms.

A focus of the role will be contributing to projects that measure and assess the impact of the Academy's courses and generate evidence to disseminate to participants, providers and the sector.

The role will provide expert advice to Academy teams on the monitoring and evaluating of professional learning in the education sector.

The role will require the ability to translate evaluation and research findings into accessible insights and recommendations for non-expert audiences.

Applications close 14 September 2023.
