ICEF Podcast: Australia’s response to student safety, welfare, and support during COVID-19

We are trying something different in our podcast series this week. As listeners may know, ICEF recently conducted its first-ever virtual event. ICEF Virtual ANZA was held from the 4th to the 6th of August with a focus on recruitment for Australia and New Zealand. Virtual ANZA included a series of webinars for attendees and we are adapting two of those distinguished panel discussions for today’s podcast. 

Our theme is student welfare and student support services during the pandemic. The ANZA region provides some fantastic case studies of educator and stakeholder response during the outbreak, and points the way to some new strategies and services for students post-COVID as well.  

You can listen to the episode in the player below, and we encourage you to subscribe via your favourite podcast app in order to receive future episodes automatically.
