News 23 AprilA message from the Provost Professor Julie Cogin.
We know it can be difficult to balance work and family life. In fact, according to research, one in three parents report conflict between their work and family roles (Perkins, 2016). As part of its commitment to supporting staff wellbeing at ACU, we’ve partnered with our Employee Assistance Program provider to deliver the Supporting Working Parents seminar.

The seminar will be delivered by a representative from our Employee Assistance Program, AccessEAP and will cover:
The seminar is directed at working parents but may also be of interest to anyone wanting to learn more about how to support the working parents in their lives.
Date: Monday, 27 August 2018
Time: 12pm – 1PM
