ACEL is pleased to announce a partnership with the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) to deliver ACEL’s 2026 National Conference, to be held in Perth from 30 September to 2 October 2026.
ACEL’s annual conference is one of Australia’s most respected education events, bringing together thousands of school leaders, teachers, and researchers from across the country and internationally. It is a space where educational leadership is celebrated, and research, evidence and practice come together to strengthen learning for all.
“ACER has long been committed to improving learning through research and evidence,” said Lisa Rodgers, CEO of ACER. “We were looking for a platform that brings together the brightest minds in education — researchers, leaders and practitioners — from across the globe, to share ideas and evidence that genuinely improve learning and further our knowledge. ACEL’s national conference provides exactly that space.”
The partnership represents a shared commitment between ACEL and ACER to advance evidence-informed education and to support the people who lead and deliver learning every day.
More details will be released on the 2026 conference in the coming months.
