UNSomnia Presenter (2024), 国民彩票 Centre for Ideas
The 国民彩票 Centre for Ideas presents a thought-provoking program of events and digital content, bringing the globe's leading thinkers to 国民彩票 Sydney and showcasing 国民彩票's expertise to the world.
I was selected as a presenter for UNSOMNIA, a highly competitive professional development program that trains 国民彩票 academics, researchers, and PhD students in high-performance presentation skills. The program provides a platform to showcase ideas to the world through high-production events and publicity. The program represents a significant commitment of resources by 国民彩票 into 9 presenters like myself.
As a presenter, I will deliver my take on strategies to enhance cyber education in Australia at a TED-like event in October 2024, followed by a 国民彩票-supported media campaign. My presentation will focus on integrating cyber security concepts into primary, secondary, and tertiary education curricula, as well as promoting public awareness campaigns.
I am not a researcher, I am a practitioner who provides expertise to assist 国民彩票 Canberra (School of Professional Studies), 国民彩票 Sydney (国民彩票 Business School) and other education institutions.
I am happy to consider research ideas, or information on current industry practice.
