At Deakin we are always looking at ways of offering secondment (internal mobility) opportunities for staff to grow and support their career development goals. Vacancies that are fixed-term appointments could potentially be an opportunity for a current staff members to grow their skills and knowledge at the University with the support of their manager.
Each year the Vice-Chancellor confers a number of awards on staff (both individuals and groups) in recognition of their excellent contribution to the University. Awards are categorised under the four key themes of the University's strategic plan: education and employability, research and innovation, communities, and ways of working.
Professional staff looking to undertake further study relevant to their role may be eligible for support in the form of study leave and fee reimbursement. Meanwhile, academic study programs give academic staff the opportunity to enhance their professional development and further develop their research or teaching.
Deakin provides opportunities to develop your leadership and management skills through a learning and network program for leaders, and courses to support your leadership aspirations.
