This document discusses the role of accreditation agencies in overseeing public financing of tertiary education. It notes that while agencies can act as gatekeepers, solely focusing on institutional needs and inputs is not enough. To be effective, agencies need a national strategic approach involving employers, government and institutions to understand future labor demands, track skills gaps, and incentivize outcomes aligned with national development priorities through metrics, transparency of decisions, and income-contingent student repayments. This may require a centralized national higher education commission or board to coordinate sector-specific accreditation, institutional auditing and oversight of all publicly-funded institutions.

Population growth – The Townsville North Queensland Region has a population of approximately 233,907, projected to grow to 361,098 by 2036. Townsville embraces 78 new residents each week – with an annual population growth of approximately 2.4%. Townsville was ranked as the seventh fastest and largest growth region in the State between 2010 and 2011.
Townsville’s demographic profile is currently skewed towards the working age population and therefore is well placed to cater to new commercial enterprises. http://www.movetotownsville.com.au/economic-snapshot
The city has a vision for its CBD to become a hub for more than 30,000 workers and residents by 2030.
