Meet the EC team
EC (by Go1) is a Melbourne based and globally connected provider of online professional learning. This organisation partners with the Academy to support Victorian educators (especially middle leaders) in their professional development and further education. Dave Faulkner has worked in K-12 education for more than two decades as a teacher, principal, system leader and thought leader. Dave is the co-founder and CEO of professional learning provider EC (by Go1). His questions about why early career teachers were leaving the profession, led him to begin work in professional learning that better prepared them for leadership and gave them greater personal fulfillment in their roles as educators. Glenn Solomons is a key EC facilitator and learning designer, who contributes to, many of EC’s professional learning programs. Glenn brings a decade of classroom and school leadership experience to the EC team and has experience in the Catholic education system.
