ASPIRE 2019 Professional Development Awards Open to both academic and professional services staff, the awards provide the winner with the opportunity to travel, to broaden their global networks and knowledge. Murdoch University places great value on the annual Professional Development Award program which is run in conjunction with Perth Convention Bureau (PCB) under the Bureau's Aspire Program. The awards program aims to raise the profile of individuals and their professional organisations, showcasing the ground breaking research and development being undertaken in our universities and ultimately resulting in conferences being secured for the State, delivering economic benefit to the wider community. The awards are proudly funded by the PCB under its Aspire Program. PCB is responsible for marketing Western Australia both nationally and internationally as a conference destination. In fulfilling this role PCB assists individuals and organisations to bring their national and international conferences to the State.
