Universities Australia - Transition From The AVCC

Transition From The AVCC

In September 2006, the AVCC announced an overhaul of the organization following a review by consultant David Phillips, Director of PhillipsKPA. The AVCC was to change its name to Universities Australia and restructure to become a peak industry body. All universities were to be eligible for membership of Universities Australia, and would be represented by the CEOs. In October, the committee decided the current President, Deputy President and Board of Directors would leave their current positions by June 2007, and the CEO would leave the position on 31 December 2006.

The new organisation would appoint a full time Chief Executive Officer (CEO) who is not a serving Vice-Chancellor as spokesperson and advocate, and a Chair of the Board who is a serving Vice-Chancellor, currently Professor Peter Coaldrake.
