We have prepared some key facts that will assist you in understanding and preparing for the College Ceremony in 2021. Whether you are presenting in-person at an ENGAGE hub or virtually, there are some key things you need to know:
- ENGAGE hubs are located in either Melbourne (central hub), Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth or Auckland.
- Due to COVID-19 restrictions numbers in ENGAGE hubs are limited. Your registration includes entry to a hub for yourself and one guest. An additional guest ticket may be purchased at time of registration. (Maximum two tickets per new fellow)
- The Melbourne central hub will host all formalities.
- New fellows presenting in a hub must arrive at the venue by 5.15pm.
- If hiring a gown these will be available for collection in your nominated hub.
- Photographers will be available in each hub, timings to be confirmed.
- Light refreshments will be served in the hub post the ceremony.
- We will continue the tradition of steaming the College Ceremony via Facebook Live out of Melbourne.
- It is a requirement for all new fellows to attend a College Ceremony rehearsal. For 2021 this will be conducted on a virtual platform, regardless of in-person or virtual presentation. The online link, time and date for the rehearsal will be advised closer to the date and in final new fellow correspondence.
- Further information will be sent to all registered new fellows prior to the 2021 College Ceremony detailing the format of the evening in March 2021.
