The Summits will embrace a broader focus to decentralisation by including the business and the education sector. A report released by Regional Universities Network indicated that Regional Universities Network member universities are a major source of employment and have created 11,300 jobs across their regional campuses. RCA works closely with Regional Universities Network to ensure those li...ving in our regions have access to education.
