Welcome Message from the Convenor

The one constant in the higher education sector is that it is always changing! And in such a dynamic field, it is always good to meet and share ideas with other like minded professionals. We’d like to invite you to take advantage of the opportunity to do just that at The Universities’ Marketing, Communications and Development Conference in Perth, September 21-23, 2011. The theme is Connect—Engage—Retain and reflects the significance of the key roles that marketing, communications and development play in our universities and higher education organisations.

This will be the premier event for professionals working within the higher education sector and is the only Australian higher education marketing event endorsed by Universities Australia.

The conference is specifically tailored for professionals who are looking for insight into best practice methods employed around the world, with a comprehensive line up of both international and Australian speakers and facilitators.

For the more experienced practitioners we will have specific strategy sessions to engage your minds and for the newcomers to the sector we will welcome you with ideas to get you going.

Once again the conference includes the JWT Education Emerging Leadership awards, so start thinking about which of your staff you can nominate for this valuable professional development opportunity.

We look forward to seeing you in Perth in September 2011.
