Meeting the Challenge updates

The Meeting the Challenge website has been updated with the latest change plans.

You can access the change plans by using the links below:

• Institute of Child Protection Studies (draft change plan)
• Faculty of Education and Arts - National School of Education (draft change plan)

All change plans have been developed in line with the University’s framework for leading and managing change. The framework ensures organisational change is managed in a transparent and constructive way. Information relating to the process is available on the Meeting the Challenge website.

If you have any questions relating to the change plans, please contact your manager or change lead.

You can also visit the Meeting the Challenge website for information about why we are making the changes, an overview of the change management process and answers to some of the most frequently asked questions.

Support available for staff

We understand that organisational change can be difficult. ACU has a range of support available to staff affected by the change process. Support available includes:

• Counselling support for all staff
• Counselling support for managers and supervisors
• Financial advice

Visit the support section of the Meeting the Challenge website for information on how to access these resources.

ACU also has specialist staff within Campus Ministry who can offer pastoral care, especially during moments of challenge, grief and uncertainty. Our chaplains (Catholic priests), and campus pastoral associates are available on all campuses to be a listening ear and an encouraging presence. Campus Ministry staff can also pray with and for you if you would like to take up that opportunity.

To access this support, please contact campusministry@acu.edu.au.
