Bespoke Programs

Bespoke Programs

The LH Martin Institute offers institutions the opportunity to tailor its current programs to their specific needs, or to develop specific programs on a fee-for-service basis. Examples of the work we have done are covered below.

Box Hill Institute

We developed a range of customised activities for Box Hill staff including a one-day session on building capacity for senior management and educator groups to increase their contextual awareness and collective capacity to lead complex change and discussions on design, development and implementation of a new teaching qualification--the Graduate Certificate in Tertiary Education--to prepare academics for higher education teaching in TAFE.

Flinders University

We developed a series of one-day programs focusing on issues unique to Heads and Deans at the University. These consisted of presentations on various management roles, their challenges and how to overcome them, and sessions on managing individuals and oneself.

Development for leaders of overseas institutions

We have developed and delivered a number of programs for overseas colleagues, including:

  • A one-day program for Indian senior university executives, held on behalf of Universities Australia.
  • A two-week academic leadership program for Saudi Arabian universities, held in conjunction with the Academic Leadership Centre, Ministry of Higher Education, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
  • A two-day program for Chinese university leaders held in conjunction with the National Academy of Education Administration, China.

On a limited scale, LH Martin Institute staff, fellows and associates are available for specific consultancy projects that fall within their areas of expertise.
