Two of Coomera Anglican College’s elearning specialists have been accepted into the Microsoft Innovative Expert Educator program (MIEE). MIEE is a global program that supports a thriving community of passionate educators who are constantly learning and working to change students’ lives and build a better world.
Foundation Principal Dr Mark Sly recognises the opportunity that this provides for the College.
“Coomera Anglican College strives to inspire excellence across all elements of the College and is very proud to support staff and teachers in their professional development”, said Dr Sly.
“Warren MacMahon and Tadgh Treanor are our e-learning specialists and work incredibly hard to ensure our students are future-focused and developing their capacity to use technology to help to drive eLearning initiatives throughout the College.
“I am extremely proud of what this opportunity will mean for them both personally and professionally and I look forward to seeing the implementation of new ideas and concepts across the College”.
Coomera Anglican College has a focus to shape the future and has initiatives in place around elearning to support the development of our future generations.

“This is a chance to reflect on the great work we are doing at Coomera Anglican College and showcase our use of Microsoft and the impact that it has on pedagogy.”
Tadgh Treanor agrees.
“We recognise that whilst technology is an accelerator, the power of change lies within educators. We are looking forward to the MIEE journey and using what we learn to continue to inspire excellence in teaching and learning” said Mr Treanor.
