Indigenous Staffing in Vocational Education and Training

📖 The Scoop

The Australian Government and all states and territory governments are aiming through policy initiatives to increase the number and proportion of indigenous staff in vocational education and training (VET). In spite of these policies there has been an overall decline in the number and proportion of such staff in the VET sector; this is most evident among public VET providers. VET employers will need to be more proactive and effective in attracting, recruiting, developing and retaining indigenous staff. A range of models of effective practice in these areas is identified. VET employers must adopt proactive approaches to the development of community networks to ensure identification of potential indigenous staff, professional and career development for existing staff, and succession planning.
