Communities solve community problems; universities solve university problems. Widening participation in regional AUS needs communities to drive it. Thanks @JohnRoss49 and @Dankeenanf for asking good questions about regional HE!

Thanks @JasonClareMP for visiting CUC @countryuc and expanding the program to increase access to higher education across Regional Australia. It was great to host you!
I’m so proud of the CUC staff, boards and communities. Their community-led approaches to HE are changing lives.

Thanks to our guests the #WuyagibaStudyHub and everyone who joined us for the second #RuralInsights webinar yesterday focused on Indigenous initiatives in education.
If you missed it, the recording is available online.

And 98% of students who study through a CUC @countryuc stay and work in their local community!
A regional student’s place of study has a significant impact on where they live and work after graduation.
Research shows that if a student studies regionally, then there is a 70% chance that they will continue to live and work in the same area.
