July & August 2019 - VET Conferences and Client Forums

It’s that time again, the start of a new financial year. Hopefully everyone remembered to submit their quality indicator reports for the previous year and your results are encouraging. The good news is the second half of 2019 is conference season in VET! There are several exciting conferences happening around the country, bringing together leaders, thinkers and providers from industry and government to explore all things VET. 

Here’s a quick summary of what’s happening in the coming months:

• NCVER ‘No Frills’ Conference on 10-12 July, Adelaide
• QLD Schools VET Conference on 9 August, Brisbane
• CanvasCon on 13 August, Sydney
• ITEC2019: Independent Tertiary Education Conference on 21-23 August, Surfers Paradise

Come say hello to us at the aXcelerate booth!

‍Client forums 

At the end of June two client forums were conducted by our Sales Executive Katie Mackay, in Brisbane and Melbourne. They were both fully booked out. These forums give users the opportunity to provide feedback on key elements of the system and to hear about new technologies and development projects aXcelerate have planned for the next six months. While some aspects of aXcelerate usability are covered, it is important to note that client forums are not intended as a system training session and are recommended for users who are already familiar with aXcelerate.

We will soon be announcing upcoming client forums in the second half of 2019 and extend an invitation to all of our RTO business owners and key aXcelerate users to attend.
