Christmas is Coming (But We're Far From The End)

Christmas might be just around the corner, but it's clear that we're far from the end. Rather than being a few weeks out from that warm and fuzzy period where the higher ed world goes quiet for a bit, it feels more like entering the eye of a cyclone... a brief moment of calm before the chaos resumes. Over the past few weeks there have been some important news stories: the ESOS legislation failing to get through the Senate, the closure of a number of providers (which is a nuanced story in itself), and the breaking news the changes to Ministerial Directive 107 might be in the works. Dirk Mulder (Editor, The Koala News) and Rob Malicki (The Global Society) sit down for one of the last times in 2024 to bring you up to date on all the major news stories across the sector... and it's a big end to the year.
