Now that the new Academic Performance and Development or APD process is ‘live’, it is time to reflect together on how it is working for TF academics that recognises the variation in TF roles. The APD process is a big change and there is much to learn to improve it. Join us in a session with the Provost and Deputy Provost (and hopefully the Academic Board President) to share your experiences, ask questions, and inform action as APD is refined. The Provost will also report on actions to clarify and enhance APD domain understandings for TF academics more widely across UQ.
This is a hybrid session. Share your views and register ahead of the session.
