These are standalone training sessions and you are not required to do all of them.

Our facilitators are experts in the field and deliver the workshop based around experiential/participatory learning that encourage reflection on participants’ own values, beliefs and behaviour.

The learning outcomes of the training are to:

• Develop awareness of Aboriginal culture and identity
• Develop awareness of the strengths of Aboriginal culture and people
• Assist in making the connection and understanding the impact of colonisation and past policy for Aboriginal people today
• Motivate participants in their cultural competence journey
