This helps to identify areas for change and assists in setting targets for improvement and identifying techniques for managing change. Unlike most existing benchmarking initiatives, this Programme focuses on the effectiveness of university-wide processes and policies rather than narrow departmental functions. It enables members to learn from each others' experience of difficulty and success, across international boundaries. CQUniversity HR system – Alesco. CQUniversity - Finance System |
