The world has undergone dramatic changes since SAAIR’s inception in 1993, with scientific and technological advancements transforming the higher education landscape.
Amidst this rapid evolution, the pursuit of institutional effectiveness remains a critical theme. In fact, it was the focus of SAAIR’s very first conference, ‘Institutional Effectiveness and Quality Improvement.’
As we celebrate our 30th year, we have chosen the theme of ‘Future-Forward Higher Education: The Next 30 Years’ to explore how higher education can prepare for the future.
This conference will examine the ways in which institutional research can support higher education institutions in becoming more future-oriented, effective, and sustainable over the next three decades.

Life ACCORDing to AAIR
This year’s AAIR Annual Forum program is guaranteed to challenge and excite as specialists share their rich experience, discuss key topics, and strategies in response to an everchanging higher education sector in a rapidly changing world.
Our forum theme, Life ACCORDing to AAIR, refers to the commitment to transformative reform in higher education by the Australian Government’s Australian Universities Accord plan. Whilst there is a particular Australian flavour to this year’s theme, there will also be plenty of talks relating to the New Zealand context in tertiary education, as they have experienced their own changes this year.
AAIR has formed valued relationships with sponsors who have participated in the Forum for many years and have become a part of the AAIR community. We look forward to continuing these relationships and welcoming new supporters to the event. Take the opportunity to speak with these vendors as often they’re working closely with many of your colleagues in other institutions.
Having the reputation of being the leading institutional research event in Australasia, the AAIR Forum is an ideal event for you to expand your knowledge in the sector. As always, there will be plenty of networking opportunities. Connect with the many institutions who continue to support the Forum and enjoy what we anticipate to be an exceptional event.
We look forward to seeing you at Oaks on Market in Melbourne!

Learn how to design attractive reports that best communicate the desired story with data
It is one thing to know how to build a report or dashboard in Power BI, Tableau, Qlik, etc., but it’s another to know which chart types to use under different circumstances, how to make it look good, and most importantly, how to make it easy for people to consume the information.
Which chart type should you use for different data stories? How can you best use your limited-screen real estate? What colours should you use and where and why? These and other important questions are addressed during this technology-independent one-day course, based upon the teachings of Stephen Few, Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic, Edward Tufte, and others.
The ATEM event calendar has a selection of upcoming events that may be of interest.
