The University recognises that the contributions of highly skilled and dedicated professional staff are critical to the success and future of the University. 

Professional staff are encouraged to continue their growth and development through attendance at a range of career development initiatives.

Financial support is available through the Professional Staff Scholarship Scheme (PSSS) and the Professional Staff Development Endowment Fund (PSDEF). Both grants have two formal application rounds each year and I am pleased to advise applications for round two are now open.

The PSSS supports a range of career development programs. Priority will be provided to applications supporting formal qualifications. There are up to 50 scholarships available per year of up to $2500 each. 

The PSDEF is available to support short courses, conferences and comparable professional development proposals. This fund offers up to $2500 per successful applicant; Individual and team applications are encouraged.
