As a member of our university community, we expect you to accept a shared responsibility for your health, safety, and wellbeing whilst on our campuses or when you involved in any form of activity related to learning, training, teaching or working with us. This includes exhibiting acceptable behaviour at all times and abiding by Student and Staff Codes of Conduct. You should also ensure you have completed any necessary orientation and safety programs for your campus, and it is also recommended that you download and sign-up to the free SafeZone App using your CQU student or staff email address. This app will allow you to quickly alert security about an incident and receive alerts about emergency situations that you need to be aware of on your campus.
Security Officers provide security and advice for students, staff and visitors across our campus network.
To contact security:
If you have previously, or are experiencing, or are aware of sexual violence, gender-based violence, domestic and family violence, harassment, discrimination or other harmful behaviours at CQUniversity, you can reach out to Safer Communities for confidential support.
If you are unsure how to manage something you have witnessed or experienced, Safer Communities provides secondary consultation services offering guidance and advice.
You don't have to do it alone.
Complete the Safer Communities Referral form and our trauma-informed team will make initial contact with you. All Safer Communities referrals are responded to within 24-72 hours. Outside of hours student support can be contacted via phone 1300 226 987 or text 0480 097 747.
The SafeZone App can be downloaded and accessed for free from any mobile device store. Please download the app and sign-up using your CQU student or staff email address. Once you have signed in select your campus region to receive alerts or report an incident. If you are travelling between campuses, you can also reset your location.
We take the health and welfare of our students very seriously, providing a wide range of support services and assistance to students on campus and online across our footprint.
Services include, but are not limited to:
If you have experienced sexual assault or sexual harassment as a member of our University community, we are here to support you.
This applies to incidents that have happened recently or in the past, and regardless of the location (off campus, in a residence, online, or on campus).
There are several ways to access support and/or make a report.
You can also access the CQU students reporting sexual assault document for more information.
We value and encourage the development of positive and respectful relationships through collaboration and interaction. Respecting others is essential in all relationships, both private and professional.
An important aspect of this is consent for any form of sexual interaction. We want to focus on healthy and respectful relationships, which emphasises the importance of giving and obtaining consent particularly before an encounter of a sexual nature, including in person, online and on mobile phones (including social media and other online platforms).
