鈥淎ustralia needs more university graduates to remain strong, safe and prosperous in a fast-changing strategic environment,鈥 黑料老司机 Chief Executive Catriona Jackson said.
鈥淎bolishing the punitive 50 per cent pass rule introduced under the Job-ready Graduates package and delivering demand-driven funding for all Indigenous students, regardless of where they live, will certainly help with this.
鈥淯niversities have long advocated for these initiatives, and we are pleased the government has listened.
鈥淲e will continue to engage with government on the non-legislative components of the bill.
鈥淯niversities are concerned the guidelines underpinning the government鈥檚 support for students policy will create additional regulatory burden without driving better outcomes for students.
鈥淲e will continue to engage closely with government to work toward an outcome that is good for students and fair on universities.鈥
