The Network of Associate and Deputy Deans (NOADD) gives members the opportunity to meet and discuss issues of the day, to collaborate and network, and to build on their professional development.
NOADD also plays an important role in the increasingly high profile advocacy work undertaken by DASSH. NOADD’s network contributes regularly to DASSH’s overall policy positions and submissions.
Regular events are held to workshop ideas and build practical skills: how to pitch to mainstream media; How to better promote equity and inclusion; Be challenged by the thinking of peers from around Australia and New Zealand.
Within NOADD, there are six Special Interest Groups which allow members to focus their engagement in the Network on the topics that are most important to them.
The NOADD Special Interest Groups are:
• Impact and Engagement
• Indigenous
• International
• Learning and Teaching
• Diversity and Inclusion
• Research
Activities and Events
DASSH and the NOADD team organise regular webinars and in person events.
In 2021 the Conference will be held in Brisbane in the last week of September with a special program being developed for NOADD members. In late November the year’s workshopping and policy contributions will be capped off with a meeting at the CHASS Congress in Melbourne.
