Emerging Education Policy Scholars Program

Grant Year: 2017

Michael Petrilli and Victoria McDougald will lead an effort to help junior scholars become better at disseminating their research and sharing their expertise with members of the policymaking community. At the two-day conference of the Emerging Education Scholars Program, invited scholars are introduced to key members of the Washington policy community from both the executive branch and Capitol Hill; attend workshops on writing for a policy audience and using social media to extend their reach; and learn about emerging policy issues that could be informed by their current or future research.
