Annual Report 2008 - Central Queensland University

Thirteen potential Fellowship applicants have been identified. A series of five
meetings were held between March and October to discuss the ALTC Fellowship
scheme and to share ideas for applications. Professor Ron Oliver from Edith
Cowan University, a holder of an ALTC Fellowship and an assessor of Fellowship
applications, facilitated one of the meetings. Four staff, including two potential
fellows, attended the 2009 Fellowship guidelines workshop in Brisbane. Overall,
awareness of the Fellowship scheme has been raised among staff, and established a
group of staff interested in developing ideas for Fellowship proposals, with the aim
of having at least one application by 2010.
