The Student Developer Award (SDA) recognises and celebrates non-academic members of the SIT community who have positively contributed to the learning experiences of our students, which resulted in the development and growth in their journey at the University.

The award is open to full-time non-academic staff in the University who have direct interaction with students in the course of their work.

The staff must exemplify strong commitment to students and student development. There must be direct and evident impact on student growth or achievement as a result of the effort of the nominee.

The award takes reference from the SIT Industry-Ready Skills Framework (IRSF) (refer to Diagram 1) and seeks to recognise non-academic staff who have geared a SIT student towards cultivating and/or acquiring skills for them to be successful pre-/post-graduation.

The IRSF embodies the overall skills, competencies and attributes that SIT graduates need to be industry ready. It helps students to:

• Gain the disciplinary knowledge, skills and abilities from your applied degree programmes.

• Acquire transferable skills from within and outside formal curriculum.

• Imbue the SITizen-DNA.
