Innovation, opportunity and inclusion will be central to the success of the biggest shake-up to Higher Education in almost 15 years, according to the Australian Technology Network of Universities (ATN).

Doctors who live and work in rural and remote parts of Australia could save up to $70,000, and nurses almost $20,000, with legislation introduced today by the Albanese Government which will reduce or wipe their HELP debts.

Funding and initiatives delivered in tonight’s Federal Budget by Treasurer Jim Chalmers has confirmed that higher education will be a cornerstone of Australia’s domestic and global recovery and will ready us for a successful future.
