During November the LH Martin Institute and the Australian Council for Educational Research will be running a series of national workshops for senior VET leaders who are responsible for designing and managing change within their organisation.

Dr John Mitchell, respected VET strategist, will be running these workshops which will enable you to better understand your own attitudes, roles and conceptual understandings of leadership in the VET sector. The workshops will draw on fresh findings from a comprehensive national leadership survey of VET leaders, and will also provide an opportunity to network with other leaders in similar roles to you and learn about upcoming professional development programs.

Who should attend?

This symposium is for senior VET leaders and managers responsible for designing and managing change in their training organisation. As a guide, we define a senior manager as a manager to whom other managers or supervisors report. In practice, this means managers above a head teacher, principal lecturer or similar.

Each workshop is limited to a maximum of 50 people.

Workshop fee

$155 (incl GST) by Thursday 12 November (includes coffee, morning or afternoon tea, and lunch)
