Student participation in AUQA audit interviews 

Around 87 students attended the lunch-time interviews held during the AUQA audits of CQU campuses including Fiji, Sydney, Melbourne, Mackay and Rockhampton.

PhotoID:2660 As part of the AUQA audit process, the auditors met with undergraduate and postgraduate students, who shared their experiences informally over lunch.

The Quality Office offered a $400 gift voucher from Harvey Norman as an incentive for students to attend. The office would like to extend thanks to all students who attended the luncheons and shared their experiences with other students and the AUQA auditors.

Mr Ken Window, Registrar and Chief Compliance Officer, drew the winning student’s name from the names of all attendees. In attendance was Ms Jo Miller, CQU Quality Officer representing the office which coordinated the AUQA auditor’s schedules.

Mr Window drew out the name of Shamsa Syeda, a Rockhampton student who is completing her Phd via the Faculty of Arts, Health & Sciences.
