This year has finished at a blistering pace for the NCSEHE, with three new research reports and the annual briefing note published during December. The Centre also held a professional development day in partnership with the Western Australian Chapter of Equity Practitioners in Higher Education Australasia (EPHEA), at which Professor Maria Raciti presented on her 2018 Research Fellowship.
2020 will mark a new chapter for the Centre. We will farewell Professor Sue Trinidad who has done a phenomenal job as Director since the NCSEHE came to Curtin University in 2013. In January, we will be joined by Professor Sarah O’Shea, who will take on the role from 2020.
From the team at the NCSEHE, we would like to thank you for your support throughout 2019 and wish you a happy and safe festive season!
