Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Staff
At TAFE Queensland we believe that vocational education and training has a key role to play in achieving a united Australia; one where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people participate equally and equitably in all aspects of life.
Our aim is to position TAFE Queensland as the training provider of choice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and the employer of choice for people with diverse backgrounds. Our vision is to advance equal and equitable social and economic opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Queensland.
TAFE Queensland proudly respects Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and their culture and history. We demonstrate this through building culturally safe learning environments that acknowledge traditional ownership and connection of First Nations people to Country. We take pride in celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history, culture and achievements.
The TAFE Queensland Reconciliation Action Plan 2018-20 outlines our commitment to a number of employment opportunities including:
- Development of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employment and retention strategy,
- Advertising vacancies in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander media, and
- Providing entry pathways such as traineeships.
