TRAINING RESOURCE GUIDE FOR NTRBs

• IFaMP, in collaboration with Capital Careers Pty Ltd., has produced a Training Resource Guide for NTRBs - Finding Training Solutions in Indigenous Decision-Making and Dispute Management: A Resource for Native Title Representative Bodies. The Training Resource Guide provides useful, easy to read, up-to-date information on training in areas relating to decision-making and dispute management.

  The Training Resource Guide sets out existing training pathways in the Vocational and Education Training sector and provides details of around 80 training providers, many of whom can customise training to requirements. The Training Resource Guide is built around twenty essential training modules which IFaMP identified in a series of workshops with Native Title Representative Bodies in 2003 and 2004, including facilitation and mediation, communication, presentation, debriefing and negotiation skills, managing meetings, dealing with difficult people and behaviours, mapping conflict, team building, relationship building exercises, managing technical experts and third parties in mediation and facilitation, group dynamics and cross-cultural communication.

  The Training Resource Guide comprises two Parts:

  Part One (Download Part 1 in PDF format - 818kb) includes information on:

  • nationally accredited training and the Australian Qualifications Framework

  • organisations to contact to obtain advice about training

  • possible sources of funding for training programs

  • the Commonwealth Government’s New Apprenticeship (traineeship) program

  • nationally accredited qualifications that best fit with the twenty priority training areas relating to Indigenous decision-making and dispute management processes.

  Part Two (Download Part 2 in PDF format - 889kb) contains information on:

  • the names of Registered Training Organisations which deliver nationally accredited qualifications containing units relevant to Indigenous decision-making and dispute management processes

  • details and contacts of a range of training providers who may offer training related to the twenty key training priority areas identified by IFaMP and who could possibly partner with an RTO to offer full qualifications.

  The Guide will be of considerable value to NTRBs as well as other organisations and Government Departments working in Indigenous Affairs, for whom Indigenous decision-making and dispute management is core business. The Training Resource Guide is also found under the Research and Publications section of the IFaMP website.
