HERDSA 2021 Conference - Early bird registration
Early bird registration closes: 16 April 2021

A reminder to register by 16 April 2021 to access the discounted early bird registration fee.

In the current environment, HERDSA recognises the difficulties facing many in the higher education sector. In order to support the professional development and network links of our members and colleagues, HERDSA is therefore subsidising the registration fee for casual and sessional staff and those who are unemployed for members and non-members.

Please visit the website for rates and further details: https://conference.herdsa.org.au/2021/registration/.

HERDSA Heroes in Higher Education Awards
Closing date 5pm AEST on 14th May 2021

HERDSA is pleased to announce they will be giving 5 new awards this year called HERDSA Heroes in Higher Education. There are five awards of $500 each.

These awards recognise academic generosity in challenging times, with an opportunity to show gratitude by recognising the generosity of a colleague or team of colleagues, who have supported you or others in an unexpected/exceptional way during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This academic generosity may be in the areas of research, teaching, service, or academic development. The generosity received may be something “tangible” (e.g., outstanding support with shifting to online teaching and learning), or more “intangible” (e.g., helping you to feel a sense of belonging and connectedness in a time of isolation). Close of submission by
5pm on 14th May 2021
