InBrief

It's four days until the deadline for submissions in Round 3 of the Professional Standards Council's Star Grants. With grants of up to $100,000 available, the grants focus on improvements to professional occupational standards. Small steps for big ideas are especially welcome, either as pilot or scoping studies, because many good ideas start small. Projects relevant to regional or rural areas are also encouraged. Round three’s deadline is midnight, this Friday, 1st March 2013. If you have your entry ready on paper, please register your submission here so that they are aware of your intention.

For those of you who have already started an application, please make sure you officially submit it before the deadline. You will receive an authorisation email to your listed email address confirming that your application is being processed.

If you have any last minute questions to help start or complete your entry, the Professional Standards Councils’ Star Grants Officer is available. Please don’t hesitate to contact Mary McCrudden on 02 8688 7323 or 0419 288 322, or info@stargrants.com.au.
