The Education Portfolio works with UTS academics and professionals across the course lifecycle to drive high-quality student experiences. We are here to support you in the lead-up to and during Spring 2025. In preparation, we have published two ‘Spring cleaning’ posts that cover the assessment planning period:
- Part 1: Using Generative AI in your Spring session subject
- Part 2: Secure assessment in your Spring session subject
This third part of the series covers the extensive Education Portfolio and UTS Library services and resources available to you. In early July, we will publish the final part in the series, which guides you through setting up your Canvas site.

Staying informed with the Education Portfolio
We will be offering a suite of workshops to prepare you for Spring, which you can view via our events page. The easiest way to stay up-to-date is by subscribing to the weekly Express newsletter which curates the latest news, resources and workshops.
With a wide range of SharePoint sites being established at UTS, we have set up our own. We call this new site a ‘hub’ as it summarises the Education Portfolio units, bringing together many of the existing sub-sites. Find out more about what services we provide and get the latest news by following the Education Portfolio Hub SharePoint site.
You can also connect with us on LinkedIn – note we no longer have an active X/Twitter account.
