Brendan Bartanen is an assistant professor of education policy at the University of Virginia. His research aims to increase our understanding of the labor market for principals and teachers. In particular, he examines the intersections among educator turnover, measures of effectiveness, high-stakes evaluation systems, and educator diversity. He was awarded the 2019 New Scholar Award from the Association for Education Finance and Policy and the Outstanding Dissertation Award from the American Educational Research Association (Division L).
His work has been published in leading journals across education, public policy, and economics, including the American Educational Research Journal, Educational Researcher, the Journal of Human Resources, Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, and the Journal of Policy Analysis and Management. His current projects study the validity and reliability of principal value-added models, the pipeline into teaching among high school and college students, and early career teacher skill development.
Brendan began his career as an 8th grade science teacher in Phoenix, Arizona. He earned a B.A. in Economics from Pomona College, an M.Ed. from Arizona State University, and a Ph.D. in Leadership and Policy Studies from Vanderbilt University.
