Description

With the implementation of My eQuals in 2017/18, a unique collaboration model was established across the Australian and New Zealand universities.  Building on this collaborative model the sector is now exploring innovation to support the future needs of learners and employers as the tertiary learning landscape shifts with learners increasingly expected to move between higher education and VET sectors, dip in and out of study over their lifetime, and engage in online education and micro-credentialing.

In parallel, work has commenced to establish a regional GDN chapter to facilitate the exchange of ideas and collaboration across the Oceania region towards student data exchange and international learner mobility.

During the webinar you will hear about various initiatives currently underway and will be given the opportunity to provide your insights and thoughts that may assist in strengthening collaboration in the region through a GDN regional chapter.
