Re-registration is a critical, resource-intensive process for higher education providers, requiring early planning, strong governance alignment, and clear documentation.

Strategic project management, risk-based evidence, and the use of TEQSA templates were highlighted as best practices, along with the growing role of Enterprise Risk Management.

In this webinar, host Emma Laurence together with experts Professor Danny Samson and Dr. Nicolene Murdoch highlighted benchmarking as a powerful, evidence-based tool for institutional learning, improvement, and strategic planning in higher education.

Whether formal or informal, benchmarking builds confidence, encourages openness, and enables institutions to learn from diverse models, ultimately driving meaningful and lasting change. - Mountains or Molehills?
