AHEGS

UNSW and the Australian Higher Education Graduation Statement (AHEGS)



In September 2008 the Minister for Education the Hon Julia Gillard MP announced the introduction of the Australian Higher Education Graduation Statement (AHEGS) for all higher education graduates in Australian Universities.

UNSW’s intention is to implement the AHEGS for students completing their program in Semester 1, 2010. The first AHEGS will be provided to students attending August/September 2010 graduation ceremonies.

The AHEGS will be issued to students in all Faculties and on all campuses. On graduation students will receive; a Testamur, an Academic Transcript and an AHEGS. From Semester 1, 2010 information currently contained in UNSW’s Supplementary Transcript will be incorporated in the AHEGS.

The PVC (Students) and Registrar has commenced work on the functional requirements and design of the new document. Further information on the AHEGS’s implementation will follow in early 2010.

Background information on the AHEGS is available from the DEEWR website:
