(25 Feb 2024) On 25 February 2024, the Hon Jason Clare MP, Minister for Education, released the Australian Universities Accord Final Report.
The Australian Universities Accord Final Report contains 47 recommendations for Government consideration and aims to create a long-term reform plan for the higher education sector to meet Australia’s future skills needs.
A Summary Report was prepared by the Department of Education and outlines themes and issues identified in the Accord Final Report.
The report unveils transformative proposals to enhance equity, innovation, and quality in tertiary education. From targeting an 80% tertiary education attainment by 2050, to establishing a new, needs-based funding model, and empowering historically underrepresented groups, these changes promise to bolster national development and sustainability.
