Iaha Nt Workforce Development

Established in 2021, IAHA NT Workforce Development Ltd is a local Northern Territory organisation based in Darwin working to improve education, training, employment and health and wellbeing outcomes with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, families, and communities across the NT. IAHA NT Workforce Development will deliver a range of education, training and career development programs within the Territory, applying a culturally centred and strengths-based framework, with supports built around the social and cultural determinants of health to further enable success. IAHA NT Workforce Development will operate the IAHA NT Aboriginal Health Academy, with the current Darwin-based Academy to be joined by additional sites in the Territory, starting with Katherine. The NT Aboriginal Health Academy supports Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to complete Year 12 and a Certificate qualification in Allied Health Assistance as school-based trainees and establish a foundation into employment and/or further education and training.
