Contact Officers are the first point of contact for students and staff who are experiencing discrimination, harassment or bullying and want to talk to someone about their options or would like further information.
Contact Officers are trained in the basic skills and requirements of being a Contact Officer, equal opportunities legislation and responsibilities, bullying and discrimination legislation, mandatory reporting responsibilities in the NT, and how to respond to disclosures of sexual violence.
Our Contact Officers are a group of individuals from different backgrounds who have come together to be the first point of contact for students and staff experiencing discrimination, harassment, victimisation or bullying and want to talk to someone about their options or would like further information. CDU’s volunteer network is across several campuses, and always looking to expand.
All discussions with Contact Officers will be treated in confidence with respect to mandatory reporting under legislation.
All Contact Officers are available between 8am and 4.21pm Monday to Friday unless detailed otherwise.
If you are interested in becoming a Contact Officer please contact People and Culture.
