At the CRC-REP, learning new things and sharing what we already know is a key part of business.
The Education Program
The Education Program is integral to all of our research activities. Our work is about building the knowledge base of remote Australia through education, training and capacity change.
Outputs

Between 2011 and 2014 we will:
- train at least 24 postgraduate students (PhD, MSc and Honours)
