ALTC moves to DEEWR and has additional 3.5 years of funding

The ALTC recently announced that $14.2 million worth of funding will be transferred to DEEWR in order to fund 3.5 years worth of awards and projects across the higher education sector.

This news is a welcome relief to staff at universities worried that HE would lose a vital resource to support the transformation of teaching and learning practice.

DEEWR will maintain the current suite of programs for at least the next 3 years. The next call for submission of grant applications is expected to be announced later this year or early next year, once ALTC activities have been transferred to DEEWR. Staff interested in applying for grants are advised to contact Melanie Fleming on ext 2922 or Alicia Zikan 5190.
