The Centre of Administration and Operations of the CAS
The CAS institutes’ first port of call
We were surprised at how reasonably an academic event, such as an international conference, can be organised when using the services of the CAS’s Centre of Administration and Operations.

We are pleased with how professional the children’s group staff are. The care they take of our children goes well beyond their duties.

I would like to thank the CAS Technology Transfer Office for their assistance with commercialising our findings. I appreciate their exceptional professionalism and how systematic they are in their work.
