How can you support mature-aged students on rural campuses to study and join the workforce, I hear you say? Check out our fresh paper in BMC Medical Education for ideas. Share it with colleagues, students and community!

Our Australian Journal of Rural Health editorial on the collaborative potential of the rural health and equity fields in higher education is out! Check it out and let me know what you think: https://t.co/BF3COT25mR
@C_Quilliam Claire Quilliam (PhD) walking us through her research with @UniMelb University of Melbourne on helping rural mature age students to become lifelong learners #17NRHC
Glad I pushed through the (really hard) tism transition challenges this morning to hear @YemiPenn speak and encourage rural health folk to challenge assumptions and crusty thinking. What a legend ๐๐ซถ #17NRHC@UDRH_VIC @ARHEN_1
Here's our latest paper illustrating where health courses are offered in Aus. Spoiler: there are very few offerings in rural and remote areas (MM4-7). That's problem if we want to support rural folks to join our rural health workforce. https://t.co/TawoNAGWJd
The wonderful Prof @MckinstryC led this paper. Also, shout out to Geraldton Universities Centre and University of Southern Queensland who illustrate a partnership model to improve access to health courses in rural communities via Regional University Study Hubs.
Check out this @BioMedCentral article, โLocation and access to health courses for rural students: an Australian auditโ, featuring three research reports from when ACSES was known as the National Centre for Student Equity in Higher Education (NCSEHE). The article explores the impact of the undersupply of health professions in rural areas on healthcare access for those living in rural Australia.
