for everyone

During your first week, there will be no scheduled classes. Instead, we have developed online and on campus orientation activities that will introduce you to life as a Global Leadership Institute student and help you feel comfortable as a student living in Brisbane. Orientation provides not only a range of necessary information, but also opportunities to meet other students and experience the Australian environment and culture.

On campus activities in addition to online safety and security (via Teams) ensure that you feel welcome and supported from your first day. You will have the opportunity to meet staff and other students. You will learn important information regarding student support, safety and security, and health and wellbeing during your studies.

All students, regardless of delivery location or mode, need to complete orientation during the week before commencement of studies. This includes completion of the compulsory plagiarism quiz on Moodle that is designed to teach you key information regarding academic integrity.

Please feel free to contact our Student Support Officer for more details regarding your orientation activities: studentsupport@gli.edu.au

My colleagues and I look forward to welcoming you at our campus
