Shirley Kelly holds five degrees including a doctorate in Educational Psychology, a MBA in Finance and Strategic Planning, and a Bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry and Human Biology. She holds memberships in the American Psychological Association, the Society for Research in Child Development, the Mid-Western Educational Research Association, and the Association of Educational Researchers of Ontario. Dr. Kelly believes that social institutions and progressive policies are instrumental to advance the welfare of a nation and its people. Hence, the process of crafting policies to transform social institutions must be done with great care and forethought and should take into account the short-term and long-term effects any proposed policy may have on a nation and its people. Dr. Kelly's work focuses on enhancing student achievement and promoting equity in educational outcomes between social groupings of students at the national and international levels. Over the course of her teaching career, Dr. Kelly has taught Chemistry and Physics at St. Clair College; Economics, Financial Management, Accounting, Project Management, and QuickBooks at IBT College; and Educational Psychology, Human Development, Child Development, Measurement and Assessment, Management of Disruptive Classroom Behaviors, and Techniques of Research at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. She lives with her three children.
