Kylie Hillman holds a Masters in Educational Psychology from the University of Melbourne and came to ACER from a clinical and educational background, working in a multi-disciplinary clinic and special education in schools briefly before beginning her research career. She worked on the Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth (LSAY) program between 2001 and 2007, and has sole or co-authored a number of reports, including those examining the emotional wellbeing of young people, relationships, rates of leaving home and home ownership, and the experiences of students in their first year of tertiary education. Other work at ACER has included analysing and reporting the results of the ACER School Life questionnaire (used by schools as an indicator of student satisfaction and wellbeing within the school context), working on the On Track project (a longitudinal study of the post-school destinations of Victorian school-leavers), developing measures of student engagement and satisfaction for tertiary and VET students, and working on the first national survey of the gambling behaviours of Australian Youth.  Her research interests include whole person education, learning difficulties, early childhood education and care and transitions throughout the lifespan.
