Australian gov’t to review HE in long-term plan

The government of Australia has announced a ‘Universities Accord’ designed to build a long-term plan for the country’s higher education system. Minister for Education Jason Clare noted it is the “first broad review” of the system since the Bradley Review in 2008. The Accord is “an opportunity to look at everything from funding and access, to affordability, transparency, regulation, employment conditions and how higher education and vocational education and training can and should work together”, he said.

A team representing a mix of STEM and humanities experts from cities and regions across the country will cooperate to advise, with students, staff, business and industry groups, peak bodies, and other experts involved.=
