TRAINING

NSWALC's Training and Development Unit has been formed specifically to facilitate a wide range of training programs for the betterment of all Local Aboriginal Land Councils, to empower members with the skills and knowledge they require to manage their local Land Councils and to increase governance and business capability of LALC Boards.

In 2008, the Network Services Training and Development Unit offered a specific training program to councillors elected for the first time to the NSWALC council.  Similarly, training will be provided to newly elected board members of Local Aboriginal Land Councils and their Chief Executive Officers.  This training will take place across the nine Regions and within six months of the election of a new Board by a Local Aboriginal Land Council.

The first round of training commenced in early February 2008 focused on governance which is a requirement under the new amendments to the ALRA 1983.

The Network Services and Training and Development Unit will always strive to support and be inclusive of Aboriginal culture and values.

The Unit has developed interesting and relevant training programs and is always happy to confidentially discuss your training needs or provide information on appropriate learning solutions for groups and individuals.
