WERA is an association of major national, regional, and specialty education research associations dedicated to sharing scholarship, developing networks, and mutually supporting capacity building. The Focal Meeting is an integral part of the European Conference on Educational Research (ECER), 2015.
The scope of the Focal Meeting is wide in its reach to include studies across the life span from early learning to workforce and adult education and that take place in formal and informal contexts of education and learning. The emphasis of the Focal Meeting is on papers and symposia with a lens that is worldwide in perspective. Otherwise there is no restriction on the education research topics appropriate for consideration, although priority will be given to submissions that focus on research and findings addressed to significant trends, issues, and challenges worldwide.
Combined ECER and WERA Conference registration will open at the beginning of April and will be available at https://www.conftool.com/ecer2015 Discounted early bird booking rates apply until 31 May 2015 after which full conference rates will apply.
