In June and July 2020, ANZSSA will be holding weekly online COVID Conversations for each of our Professional Focus Groups.
This is an opportunity for ANZSSA members in similar roles to take part in a professional discussion about our response to COVID19 – how it impacted students and staff in higher education institutions and changes made to delivery of student services. These conversations will focus on lessons learnt and future challenges and opportunities. You will hear from a panel of staff and students from Australia and Aotearoa (New Zealand) and will participate in conversations with colleagues.
These Tuesday COVID Conversations will be held on the Zoom platform 12noon – 1pm AEST.

To enable the PFG's to continue the conversations following their Zoom catchup, we have established PFG portals on the ANZSSA website. The portals can be used for online discussions as well as sharing files between the members of the group. If you wish to be added to the portal for your relevant PFG/s, just complete the form below, and you will be sent details on how to access the portal.
Allow 2 business days to be given access to the portal/s after requesting to join. Then, you will find the portals here - you will need to login using your email address and password (use the Forgot Password link if you don't know your password). Once logged in, you will be able to select the group from the dropdown list - this will only show the group/s you are a member of.
Once in the portal, you will see:
