Key note addresses Michael Gilchrist TEU; Neil Quigley, UoW; James Ranstead, NZUSA; and, Chris Hipkins, Minister of Education

This forum looks at whether the structures of the sector (many designed 25 years ago) enable us to meet society's needs; are consistent with the government’s education strategy; and, are providing for the sustainability of institutions.

Short interventions from provocateurs will challenge participants to think about and debate the key issues facing the tertiary education sector.
