The Website
The ATEM website was certainly a huge step forward.
The ATEM Website began in 2000, after the upheaval caused by Jim McLauchlan's ATEM 2000 Group. It was certainly a huge step forward, adding one more jewel to the ATEM Crown: the other jewels being the Tertiary Education Management Conference (TEMC) and the Journal of High Education Policy and Management.
The site is currently in the creative hands of a group of geniuses in Melbourne called Evolution 7. It has been through three upgrades and further sophistications were added each time. The back end of the web site manages an enormous amount of administrative work. The site houses the archived papers given at Regional Conferences and links to the National Library of Australia Pandora Archive where the papers given at the TEMCs going back to 1999 are kept.
We applaud the 3rd child in ATEM's cradle. The Tertiary Education Management Conference is now a huge baby and the ATEM Journal has produced over a million pages of well-reasoned print, but the Conference happens only once a year and the Journal is published six times a year: whereas the Web Site happens by the minute.
