This symposium will explore the opportunities, function and context of professional standards, competencies and frameworks that apply to Learning Designer roles in Higher Education. We seek to sharpen the focus and remove some ambiguity around Learning Designer roles. In the symposium, participants will consider the challenges, barriers, as well as the opportunities that professional standards for learning designers may afford, through examining the role from a professional identity lens. The symposium is designed to be an active forum where participants will discuss and contemplate what an Australian standard for Learning Designers may look like.
