Dr Claire Bartlett

Learning Designer

B.Ed, M.Ed, Dip E-Learning, PhD, gcu

Drawing on her extensive background in education and reform, Dr Claire Bartlett brings a wealth of expertise and a healing-centred perspective to our Positive Duty workshops. Claire holds a Doctor of Philosophy and a Graduate Certificate of University Learning and Teaching from Charles Darwin University, as well as a Master of Education (TESOL) from Deakin University.

Her academic foundation is further bolstered by a Post Graduate Certificate (TESOL) from Macquarie University, a Diploma of E-learning from Tropical North Queensland TAFE, and a Bachelor of Education (Primary) from the University of Melbourne. This impressive array of qualifications ensures that our curriculum is underpinned by deep pedagogical knowledge and a sophisticated understanding of how adults learn.

As the lead curriculum developer for our workshops, Claire has combined her significant academic credentials with decades of practical, local experience to create a learning environment that is both legally robust and human-centred.

Claire's career includes prestigious roles such as Associate Dean and Senior Lecturer, alongside being a published researcher and an Honorary Fellow at the Melbourne Medical School. By moving beyond traditional compliance training, Claire’s approach empowers participants to not only meet their legal obligations under the Anti-Discrimination Act but to actively foster safer, more inclusive, and flourishing workplace cultures.
