Petria McGoldrickPartnerships – in working together, supporting each other, always learning & celebrating success.

Though it’s been a while, she can still recall her role prior to this one; she was working in occupational rehab, based in the workers’ compensation area, and also assisting people from the community with disability to fulfil their work and education goals. Clearly, disability assistance is an area she has long been passionate about.  Read more about Petria McGoldrick

Have you heard of the '#Autism advantage'? More and more employers are beginning to tap into the diverse skills of the Autistics workforce. This NDCO presented webinar will look at strategies for supporting individuals on their transition to employment and explore ideas for working with employers to think differently about their recruitment process to tap into the 'autism advantage'. Presented by Vicky Little of Specialisterne Australia. https://www.adcet.edu.au/resource/9910/webinar-the-neurodiverse-workforce-tapping-into-the-autism-advantage-movement/ [image shows three ladies behind a desk with a computer on it.

It's been ten years since the last major review of the role that equity plays in Australian higher education, and more than 30 since the core framework for equity was first defined in the 1990 White Paper A Fair Chance for All. Time then, to take stock and rethink the vision for student equity in the context of the contemporary Australian higher education system and economy. National Centre for Student Equity in Higher Education is seeking contributions from key stakeholders on its Student Equity 2030 Discussion Paper. More details are available at https://www.adcet.edu.au/resource/9917/responses-invited-student-equity-2030-discussion-paper/ [image shows a desk with a smartphone and pen on it, and a piece of paper featuring the word 'feedback']
