Training providers

Three Aboriginal businesses were awarded contracts across specified regions. They are currently all updating their service delivery to accommodate restrictions faced due to COVID-19. Please contact your provider for further information.

The contractors consulted with Aboriginal business and not-for-profit communities in their specified regions in order to design the program and develop a strategy for providing the program in a culturally respectful way. Service delivery will ensure that the varied needs of Aboriginal entities across the state are addressed.
