The Business Graduate of Tomorrow Conference
Are we producing highly trained but increasingly poorly educated graduates?
This one-day summit held in Sydney on the 14th March 2007, was co-hosted by the Australian Business Deans Council, and sponsored by CPA Australia. The conference provided educators, employers, industry associations and government representatives with the opportunity to analyse what attributes will Australia's future business graduates require in order to progress Australian enterprise.
