Professional Experience (PEX) Hub Program
Goals of the PEX Hub program
A Professional Experience Hub is a centre of excellence for professional experience.
In collaboration with its university partner(s), a PEX Hub:
- advocates for professional experience being a shared responsibility for preparing future teachers that benefits teachers, schools and the system as a whole
- provides consistent high quality professional experiences for all preservice teachers, supervising teachers and initial teacher education providers in our sphere of influence
- leads collaborative school-based evaluative practices to inform innovation in professional experience
- shares knowledge and supports a network of schools to strengthen the quality of professional experience
- focuses on strengthening and supporting subject matter expertise in the designated area of workforce need.
PEX Hub program cycles
The PEX Hub program operates in three-year cycles. Each cycle draws on schools and networks of schools across NSW to develop, share and scale effective practices in collaboration with their university partners.
The PEX Hubs for the 2025-27 program cycle are currently being finalised.
