Established in 1974, the North Carolina Association for Research in Education works to improve the quality of education in North Carolina through research and evaluation.  NCARE members include graduate students, university faculty and staff, staff of the Department of Public Instruction, members of local education agencies, and researchers in the private sector.  NCARE activities are implemented through its elected officers and board of directors.

The 2019 NCARE Conference will be held February 28 - March 1st on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.  More details will be announced later this summer!
