For the third year in a row, the Association also provided its Workplace Relations Practitioner Program on a free-to- member basis.
Our ‘Managing for Success’ program was delivered at Central Queensland University, which had 7 workshops delivered to 102 participants across 4 campuses, and at the University of Canberra, where a total of 32 participants were involved in a program which was tailored to suit their individual needs, and which now operates as the precursor to their Leadership and Development program.
The Association also engaged the Centre for Leadership and Management to deliver two training ‘Managing Very Di cult Workplace Behaviour’ programs tailored to the higher education sector; one for the University of Canberra, and the other being a Masterclass Program which was delivered as a public program in Canberra, Perth and Adelaide.
