How to submit content for the monthly Student News and Events bulletin:

  1. Upload the news or event content as a Student Portal feed item through Sitecore. If your team does not have a Student Portal Sitecore editor then please submit the content as a general web update request via Service Central, specifying that it is a news/events item for inclusion in the Student Portal news section.
  2. Send an email to student.news@acu.edu.au by the relevant content due date, requesting inclusion in the bulletin. Include the title of the news item and the front-end URL for the item where possible.

The schedule for 2024 bulletins is outlined in the table below.
