The following provides access to range of resources associated with the institutional process for supporting USQ staff considering applying for the 2017 Australian Awards for University Teaching (AAUT). The process started with two sessions
- A information session titled: Am I (or my team) ready to apply?
- A Citations and Awards Workshop to help those who were ready start developing their applications.
