CVGT have applied
for and have been successful in attaining membership on the
Employment Panel of the reformed Indigenous Employment Panel
(IEP).
As a result CVGT have a current program operating in the Bendigo
and Mid Murray region of Victoria. Our program works closely with
participants to identify training needs and ultimately seek
employment placements that will lead to successful and sustainable
outcomes. This is done in consultation with the participant and may
include working closely with the participants community in
general
Under the reformed IEP, support is available for activities that
increase employment opportunities and participation for Indigenous
Australians and that which will offer value for money. This could
include activities that:
- encourage and support employers to provide sustainable
employment opportunities for Indigenous Australians
- encourage and prepare and support Indigenous Australians to
take up training and employment opportunities, stay in jobs and
enhance their future employment prospects
help Indigenous communities, industry bodies and groups of
employers to develop Indigenous workforce and economic development
strategies that support local and regional economic growth
Individuals, can access assistance directly from CVGT by

is supported by a strong element of mentoring and support provided
through our one to one service. Our success in delivering this and
similar types of programs is well reported by the range of awards
CVGT have received.
