Last week, the Atrium team (pictured Marty, Matt, Harri and Ben) got the opportunity to present Atrium’s research and success to hundreds of academic and professional staff, along with students from Universities across Australia at the annual Student Transitions Achievement and Success (STARS) conference in Melbourne.

Over three days the conference presentations brought together over 350 students, academics and professional staff to share their expertise, passion and knowledge on the challenges and opportunities universities are grappling with in the present climate, from attrition to AI.

Presentations covered a broad range of topics from Emerging Initiatives to Good Practices. In the opening session Harrison Munday presented a research paper on Student Disengagement and the Identification of at-risk Students in Tertiary Education. This was well received, generating a lot of interest, questions and requests for more information.
