Course Reps

Course Representatives (CRs) are the key link between students and course teaching teams, they are the middle person to convey information and feedback, to raise your experiences or concerns and help formulate an action plan with your teaching team. If you have any issues you can directly raise this with your CRs as they are the first port of call for students to handle any course related issues. 

Student Voice Reps

Student Voice Reps (SVRs) are students who have been elected or appointed represent you academic matters relating to your student experience at USW. They do this by attending Faculty Learning Teaching Enhancement Committees (LTECs) and Faculty Quality Assurance Committees (FQACs) regularly and always input feedback they receive from students and course representatives to help resolve any issues flagged.

SVRs also chair Course Representative Assemblies (CRAs) where Course Reps are invited to attend any of the meetings to provide feedback and get some quick help or guidance to any ongoing issues. It is also an opportunity for the SVRs to connect with the CRs in their faculty.
