In an effort to combat the local skill shortage crisis, CQUniversity Australia is inviting employers to establish a scholarship that will enable students to develop a pathway into the local workforce.

Suzi Blair, Director Office of Development and Graduate Relations, sees this as an excellent opportunity for businesses to partner with the University to prepare students for the workforce.

The best and brightest science films can be seen at CQUniversity Mackay on August 16-17 in conjunction with National Science Week.

SCINEMA, a science film, video and multimedia festival, brings a program of amazing films on topics ranging from climate change, human health and natural history, to broader social films.

Candidates for the International English Language Testing System, known as IELTS, can now access a testing centre in Mackay.

Previously they have had to travel hundreds of kilometres, but the new service established by CQUniversity Language Centre at the Mackay Campus will make things easier.

All interested people are welcome at FREE nursing information evenings being hosted from 6pm-9pm on Tuesday August 12 at CQUniversity campuses at Rockhampton, Mackay, Bundaberg and Noosaville.
