Special Commendations - COVID 19 Emergency Teaching Response Recipients

In 2020 Special Commendations were offered to recognise the exceptional work in teaching and learning that academic and professional staff supporting teaching undertook in response to the COVID19 pandemic.

In recognition of the increased workload imposed by the changes in teaching mode required by the emergency response we also simplified the application process.
Awards were made to staff who were able to demonstrate agility, creativity and innovation in responding to the unique learning and teaching context created by the COVID19 pandemic.

Please join us in congratulating these worthy recipients.
