Welcome

The Victorian University Directors of IT (VDIT) is a collaborative community-of-practice group of Chief Information Officers (or equivalent) of universities with a presence in the states of Victoria and Tasmania.

VDIT provides for the interchange of ideas and promotion of excellence in the delivery of information and communication technology (ICT) services in the higher education and research sector (HE&R). VDIT acts as a forum for relevant and mutually beneficial engagement with partners – both public and private sector, including the state governments and its agencies.

Communities

Recognising the important role that collaboration can play to promote excellence within the sector, VDIT sponsors Communities-of-Practice (CoPs). A range of different ICT discipline specialties have been considered as likely candidates for CoPs. The area of Cybersecurity has been chosen as the first CoP with a well-received initial meeting of stakeholders held in late 2015. The Cybersecurity CoP will continue with regular meetings.

Forums

VDIT run an annual forum to showcase, promote and advance excellent application of ICT in the higher education & research sectors in Victoria, Tasmania and more broadly. Each year a topical theme is chosen. Over the years, the event has covered a wide range of topics. Attendees have ranged from academic and research partners, industry partners and IT professionals working in the sector.

VDIT acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the lands where we live, learn and work. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of all First Nations people.
