A 65: Charleville Branch (QLD)

Tertiary Education
Motion:

“That ICPA (Aust) continues to advocate to the Federal Government for the ongoing expansion of the Country University Centre’s (CUC) network to enable greater access to tertiary and vocational education for geographically isolated students.”

Explanation:

ICPA Charleville Branch thanks the Minister for Education the Hon. Jason Clare and the Federal Government for the recent rollout of a further ten Country University Centre (CUC) Regional University Study Hubs throughout Rural, Regional and Remote Australia.  

Regional University Hubs support regional, rural, and remote students to successfully pursue higher education and vocational studies or training, while remaining in their communities with family, friends, and local employment. By expanding the Australia wide network of these centres an increased number of rural students and communities will benefit into the future.
