Experts from Orygen, Headspace, the Melbourne Sexual Health Centre, Allianz, the City of Melbourne, The Victorian Residential Tenancies Commission and more shared vital information to increase knowledge of services and support best practice. We are grateful to our many colleagues who enthusiastically attended and are committed to delivering outstanding student experience.

The network is open to all education providers and allied organisations and is ideal for international student support staff.
