The Education Section of the Australian Electoral Commission aims to educate the Australian community about the electoral processes by which we elect our representatives to the Commonwealth Parliament, and how we as Australian citizens are able to have a say in changing the Australian Constitution.
Does your school hold elections? Get Voting provides all the tools and information needed to run an easy, fair and fun election. You can also order election equipment like ballot boxes and election official badges. You can even request an election expert visit your school to conduct the election.
The Australian Electoral Commission provides various education services for schools and community groups. These include presentations on request by AEC divisional staff, sessions at our electoral education centres and professional development workshops for educators.
Education programs and resources provided by the Australian Electoral Commission are free of charge. To order resources please email education@aec.gov.au.
