Celebrations are always important but even more so when times are tough!
Have you nominated an individual or team for our Unitec Excellence Awards? Our new format this year means there’s a category for everyone, whether they’re in a teaching or support role. Due to EER we've extended the closing date, with nominations now closing at 5pm, Wednesday 14 November. Just 300 words is all it takes to highlight your nominee’s contribution or achievement.
