All recipients of the Awards noted that they were just a sample of the great and supportive staff at Melbourne Campus and accepted the awards on behalf of their colleagues. 

The Student Nominated Award was introduced this year and, during September and October, CQUniversity students were encouraged to recognise their lecturers for teaching excellence through an online survey.

The response was overwhelming, with over 150 students from CQUniversity Melbourne recognising their lecturers for teaching excellence. Thirty-seven teachers were nominated by students which is a fantastic endorsement of the Melbourne Campus teaching staff.

The evening was a great success with everyone having an enjoyable and entertaining evening.
