The NTCA Indigenous Employment Program provides opportunities for indigenous youth in the pastoral industry. Participants receive accredited; industry recognised training, job placement and ongoing mentoring and support.
The Northern Territory Cattleman’s Association (NTCA) Indigenous Employment Program is a partnership between the Indigenous Land Corporation and the NTCA. The program aims to help Indigenous youth make the transition from CDEP into the pastoral industry and develop and strengthen the sustainability of workforce within the pastoral workforce.
The program currently supports up to 65 participants throughout the Northern Territory. The NTCA is responsible for recruitment; industry recognised training, placement into jobs and on-station mentoring. The program has been running for three seasons and has seen an annual increase in particpation thanks to the support of our members. The NTCA Indigenous employment program has offices in Alice Springs and Katherine.
The program has secured ongoing funding until June 2013. It hopes to expand Indigenous participation in the pastoral industry across the NT. Career pathways are established for participants to develop professionally.
