The Academic Balancing Act: Unpacking the Dynamics of Workload Pressure and Burnout
Join us for an afternoon of expert-led discussion on the topic of academic workload and burnout, voted by our members as the most pressing issue for SHAPE EMCRs in Australia today. After the expert panel, EMCRs will workshop an advocacy strategy with our keynote panellists, setting SHAPE’s action plan on the issue for 2025. A networking event will follow at the UWA University Club allowing EMCRs to connect with each other and senior CHASS delegates. Limited travel bursaries are available for members.
