Institutional Membership

Institutional membership is open to any institution that has a strong research tradition and is concerned with promoting, supporting, and/or conducting educational research related to student achievement. Please note that nonmembers may still participate in IEA studies.

Member institutions are responsible for:

• Implementing IEA studies within their countries;
• Raising funds for national project costs and international coordination; and
• Disseminating findings from IEA studies to a broad audience of government officials, policymakers, researchers, educators, and the media.

Membership also requires designation of a permanent representative to the IEA's General Assembly, which meets annually.
