IES training programs prepare individuals to conduct rigorous education research supported by IES across its research competitions, advance knowledge within the field, and address issues important to education policymakers and practitioners. As part of the programs, IES supports –
- Training that adopts new approaches to find and mentor students and researchers from diverse backgrounds to encourage their entry into and success in education research careers
- Training that includes new ideas, approaches, and perspectives to address long-standing education issues
- Training that helps researchers, including state and local education agency research staff, acquire skills necessary to obtain, evaluate, and generate evidence needed for policy and programmatic decisions
For FY 2023, IES is accepting applications for training under two programs:
- Early Career Mentoring Program for Faculty at Minority-Serving
- Methods Training in Data Science for Education Researchers
