Australasian Research Training Network (ARTN) Event: Looking Backward and Forward – HDR Administration and Training in 2025
Join us as we reflect on HDR matters in 2024. We’ll recap some of the key initiatives from ACGR, ARMS and ARTN but also explore what’s happening in 2025.
Designed for HDR staff working at all levels, this session is an opportunity to hear about what’s going on and see where you might fit into the broad and complex world of HDR!
We’d also love to hear from you about how the ARTN can help you, and will give you some time to virtually meet other people in the HDR network!
Should time permit, attendees may be put into breakout rooms to discuss topics such as:
- Using AI in HDR administration and development;
Pastoral Care vs Administration;
- How to build/re-shape a research office - practicalities and culture; and
Facilitating interdisciplinary collaborations.
