ACER's Masters level accredited course, Understanding Rasch Measurement Theory, builds skills in using and interpreting data from large scale assessments such as TIMSS, PIRLS and PISA, as well as performing analysis and reports on other assessment data sets.

Understanding Rasch Measurement Theory provides a theoretical background with a strong emphasis on building practical skills in objective measurement, statistical analysis and evaluation. You'll learn about objectivity in measurement, how to evaluate the consistency of data, and how to measure group trends and individual growth – the nuts and bolts that underpin educational assessment.

Understanding Rasch Measurement Theory courses start in January and July and can be completed in just 10 weeks of online part-time study. Successful completion of the course will result in an ACER statement of attainment and certificate.
