About the TEQSA 2025 Conference

Trust, Transparency, Transformation

Join us in November for TEQSA’s 9th annual national conference, the only dedicated networking event focused on assuring the quality and integrity of the higher education sector. Central to this year’s theme, Trust, Transparency, Transformation, is the rapid change in technology, demographics and global pressures facing providers and the Australian community. Together, let’s unpack the opportunities and risks that will help the sector prepare for a dynamic future in higher education.

• Expert speakers will pose essential questions and offer strategic insights, including:

• How can higher education help Australia achieve its productivity potential?

• How can institutions apply systems thinking to manage regulatory risks and build trust?

• What are TEQSA’s priorities looking ahead? How do we balance innovation and risk?

• How can providers navigate the international education landscape?

• How will work be recalibrated through the transformative adoption of AI?

• How do the various regulatory and governing bodies collaborate to build trust within the sector?

This is Australia’s only truly sector-focused event and features a program designed to uplift and inform with inspirational speakers and panel discussions. Additionally, 2 dedicated networking receptions will offer fantastic opportunities to connect with your sector peers.

Registration

We look forward to welcoming higher education providers, academics and students from Australia and overseas to the TEQSA 2025 Conference: Trust, Transparency, Transformation, on Wednesday 19 November.

The main conference event will be offered in a hybrid format (in-person and virtual options) to ensure that attendance is within the reach of as many providers as possible. In-person attendees can also attend a catered Networking Reception at the close of the conference on Wednesday evening.

On Tuesday 18 November, as with previous years, we’ll be hosting an afternoon of pre-conference seminars. The pre-conference seminars are in-person only and are separate to the main conference. There will also be a student forum – an exclusive pre-conference networking event for student delegates.

All in-person registrations (for the main conference day or both days) include a ticket to a catered Welcome Reception being held at Sofitel Melbourne on Collins on Tuesday evening. Anyone registered to attend the main conference in-person can also complete their event check-in at the Welcome Reception, to ensure a seamless arrival on Wednesday morning.
