What is the Indigenous Training and Employment Program? What are the key elements that Eurest introduced into the various applications of the program?

What will be an ideal response?


Specifically, ITEP teaches new work skills integrated with consultation and mutual understanding of local communities (Eurest, 2004). The key elements (Northern and Central Land Councils, 2001) that Eurest integrates into the various applications of its plan include the following:
• A dedicated ITEP manager employed by Eurest
• Aboriginal community consultation
• Structured and accredited preemployment training
• A gradual exposure to the workplace
• Mentor support and an on-site buddy system
• Cross-cultural training for non-Aboriginal employees
According to Eurest published figures (2001), Eurest increased its indigenous workforce by 203 people within 18 months of initiating ITEP. Additionally, Eurest helped a dozen students enhance their employment prospects via a prevocational retail hospitality training course operated by Eurest and Mission Employment (Ellis, 2002).
