CERI stands for Centre for Educational Research and Innovation. CERI was set up in 1968 as an independently funded programme by member countries and other organisations. It has established an international reputation for pioneering educational research, opening up new fields for exploration and combining rigorous analysis with conceptual innovation. CERI's staff is made up of international experts and CERI is a major division of the OECD Directorate for Education.

What does CERI work on? CERI’s work covers learning at every age, from birth to old age. It goes beyond the formal education system. We have a particular concern with emerging trends, issues and futures thinking in schools and universities. We often have a longer timeframe than most work, typically aiming to set an agenda for the next 5-10 years or longer. Our goal is to ensure that the futures work is thoroughly integrated with empirical analysis. We also put specific emphasis on accumulating evidence on the value and quality of futures work. 

Who does CERI work with? CERI works with all OECD member countries, often in small groups of between five and fifteen countries. We draw extensively on expert knowledge  from member countries for research and analysis. We have been developing links with educational and other research associations as well as with national and international multidisciplinary networks.

How does CERI disseminate its work? CERI disseminates its work to a wide range of audiences including researchers, policy makers and practitioners extending beyond education. Our core outputs are through publications, reports, conferences and policy briefs. Increasingly, we are striving towards a more web-based and interactive dissemination of results.
