Diploma of Indigenous Employment

This course explores the concepts and professional practices that support developing a better understanding of the factors surrounding Indigenous people's engagement in employment (particularly in the public sector workforce).

You will develop specific skills relevant to Indigenous people's engagement in public sector work environment, retention, workplace support and development.

Issues that surround the contexts of Indigenous people's participation in employment are addressed in ways that respect people's cultures, worldviews and socioeconomic status.
