ACU has been pursuing innovation through focusing on four key areas:
The Office of the Provost have launched a fortnightly seminar series to report on how ACU has been meeting its targets in the first of the key areas: Innovating the Student Experience (ItSE).
The seminars aim to keep academic and professional staff informed of projects, either implemented or in development, that will address the critical area of transformation of our students’ experience at ACU.
The upcoming fifth seminar in this series focuses on digital solutions that are being designed or have been implemented for the benefit of students and stakeholders.
The following seminar is key to ACU’s strategic focus and in line with our mission of honouring the dignity of the human person and the common good. It will cover ACU Guarantee and Uni Step-Up, programs which are distinctive, inclusive, dynamic and provide the opportunity for a more diverse group of individuals to engage in ACU’s student-centred education model.
