Objectives
The goal of the Institute will be to improve the quality of post-secondary education management and governance.
The Institute will be interdisciplinary and will have as its key objectives:
- to train the next generation of leaders of Australia’s higher education and VET institutions in the strategic management of their institutions;
- to provide a forum in which public policy makers, public and private sector institutions, and national and international experts can explore and assess the changing national and international environment of higher education and VET; and
- to support its educational programmes with scholarship and research.
It will do this through the provision of:
- coursework programmes at postgraduate level;
- continuing professional education and refresher programmes, for aspiring and established senior executives and leaders and for members of governing bodies;
- conferences and seminars on major policy and management issues; and
- consultancy services to higher education and VET institutions.
