EdMeas24, the Sydney Educational Measurement and Assessment Symposium, is running for the second time in 2024, and will be hosted by the Centre for Educational Measurement and Assessment (CEMA) at The University of Sydney on Monday 25 November 2024.
It is a research event designed to gather several different communities to share ideas and interact across boundaries – measurement and assessment – but also settings such as schools, universities, government departments and agencies, commercial entities, and NGOs. The central purpose of the Sydney Educational Measurement and Assessment Symposium is to bring together people from a range of communities, settings, and traditions.
We envisage receiving proposals from those employed in the school sector, higher education sector, VET sector, government, and industry.
