After a year of damning evidence in the NSW Parliamentary Inquiry, the final report into university governance has been tabled. It's truly a testament to NTEU member efforts. Now it's time for real legislative change.

ICAC, NSW Parliament, staff stories and media digging all point to the same conclusion: corporatised management, unaccountable councils and business interests have taken our public institutions down a dark path.

Join us on Monday, 28 September for a panel discussion of the report, the significance of its recommendations and what comes next in the campaign to fix our unis.

The forum will be live at the North Wollongong Hotel from 5.30pm, with a Webinar for those who want to watch online.

RSVPs essential: https://nsw.nteu.au/our-unis-our-future/

USyd NTEU members proudly walked off the job and onto the picket lines today!

Management is refusing to budge on key issues in bargaining negotiations, but members wont be ignored.

All staff at USyd deserve fair workloads, job security, and protections against AI. That’s why we’re on strike today! ✊💜  

Join staff and students at 1pm outside the Michael Spence building where we’ll be gathering for speeches 📣

We’re nearing the first-year anniversary of the tragic passing of our dearest friend, colleague, comrade and sister Sinéad Francis-Coan.

Sinead worked with and was loved by so many at NTEU and the wider movement and it feels pertinent to come together to mark our loss and to keep alive the memory of Sinéad’s incredible life and work.

Please join us for a memorial gathering on Friday 19 June at the NTEU Office in Surry Hills, Sydney.

Happy May Day! ✊

NTEU members proudly walked off the job at UTS on a 24hr strike for better pay and working conditions.

We’ve been calling for critical improvements for all UTS staff - a fair pay rise that meets cost of living demands, better job security and workloads, improved parental and reproductive leave rights, and protections against Artificial Intelligence, to name a few.

Thanks to the wonderful speakers who joined us: Senator , Director of Media Cassie Derrick, president Felix Hughes, and staff who told stories of how they had been directly impacted by Management’s callous choices.

The workers united will never be defeated! ✊💜

Thanks to the wonderful speakers who joined us: Senator Mehreen Faruqi, MEAA Director of Media Cassie Derrick, NUS president Felix Hughes, and staff who told stories of how they had been directly impacted by Management's callous choices.

We’ll be back on strike tomorrow, on campus from 8-11am. See you there UTS members! ✊💜

The NSW Parliamentary Inquiry into University Governance has released its interim report this week 📑

These findings and recommendations are the first of many critical governance reforms that could take place; they are prerequisites for the future change desperately needed in our sector.

We must continue to raise our voices and remind decision makers like the Education Minister and Treasurer that thousands of university staff, students and supporters want to see real changes like these and more enacted.

Make sure you sign our open letter, calling for greater transparency and independent audits to be conducted at ALL NSW universities.
