<p><p>If the RQF continues in its present form, how will humanities scholars describe “impact”?</p>
<p>CHASSS is running a practical workshop at the University of Sydney on October 4 to examine the nuts and bolts of the RQF, and particularly the notion of Impact.</p>
<p>Featured speakers include Humanities RQF Panel Chair Iain McCalman and a progress report from Leanne Harvey, Branch Manager of the Research Quality Branch at DEST. There will be a combination of speakers, panel discussions and breakout sessions. The workshop will enable humanities researchers to discuss practical solutions to the demands of the RQF. </p>
<p>The event also looks to the future. The alternative Government has vowed to scrap the RQF. If the ALP is elected to Government, what advice does the Humanities have on a replacement system? What shape should a new version of the assessment process take? </p>
<p>This workshop puts the Humanities on the front foot. If the RQF continues, our sector is better advised. If the situation changes, we have considered how it could be improved.</p>
<p>Can Humanities scholars afford to miss this event?</p>
