Professional Development Research Network (PDRnet)

PDRnet is a network of scholars interested in researching professional learning and development processes both in educational and workplace settings. In total, PDRnet consists of 24 researchers from 12 different universities in 5 countries. We meet annually for a three day research symposium in which young researchers (graduate students, doctoral students, and Post-Docs) present their ongoing research projects to the participating PDRnet members. The meeting is also used to work on current research collaborations as well as to initiate new research projects.
