Be proactive in planning your professional development in 2017 by browsing the upcoming courses provided by ACU units such as HR, Learning and Teaching, Research, Finance and Student Administration.  You can view these on the ACU training website at any time, or look out for the listings in the Staff Bulletin every Tuesday.

You can also browse the yearly professional development calendar outlining the courses offered by HR – this program has been designed to build capabilities across ACU by supporting the development of individual, team and leadership abilities. The HR Professional Development Calendar outlines the ACU Capability Development Framework competencies addressed in the training programs.  Remember to discuss your professional development plans with your supervisor.  For example, conversations during the annual Performance Review and Planning (PRP) process can provide an opportunity to reflect on your strengths and consider areas for potential development.
