About

The purpose of the Transformative Agreements Community of Practice is to provide a forum for CAUL Member institution staff to engage in collegial professional learning and information sharing related to implementation and management of transformative agreements.

Objectives of the Community of Practice:

  • Provide a forum for the exchange of ideas related to CAUL agreements.
  • Facilitate information sharing on best practices, strategies, and resources.
  • Offer peer support for addressing challenges.
  • Encourage the exploration of key issues impacting CAUL agreements.
  • Foster discussions on recent developments and evolving practices in the field.
  • Organise community-led training and professional development opportunities to enhance skills.

The Community of Practice focuses on implementation and management of transformative agreements in institutions, including the ways that library staff work within the broader institution to support implementation.
