Acknowledging Our Outstanding Staff

UniSA's Unstoppable Teaching and Learning Awards aim to highlight the exceptional practices of academic and professional staff across the University, and to foster a shared approach to innovation in teaching and learning.

The Awards have been developed to ensure alignment with the existing local area award activities, and Academic Units, UniSA Online and Central Units are encouraged, where possible, to nominate applicants and recipients from their local award schemes.

The Unstoppable Teaching and Learning Awards also align with the existing schemes coordinated by the Teaching Innovation Unit, effectively establishing a strong awards pipeline dedicated to promoting teaching and learning excellence. Nominees will gain valuable experience and support to apply for other prestigious award and grant schemes, both within UniSA and at the national level, including UniSA Teaching and Learning Awards, Unstoppable Teaching and Learning Grants, Australian Awards for University Teaching (AAUT) awards, or other renowned teaching awards provided by professional organisations.
