Training and Employment Programs
We have two training and employment programs running across 2024.
Our Conservation Cadets program is designed to support people who have found a disability a barrier to finding employment. The next round will be recruited early 2025. Cadets earn a full award wage for 20 weeks, whilst working part-time (24 hrs/wk) on community projects across all four islands. They gain accreditation in introductory conservation and tourism units, while learning in hands-on environment
We will soon be recruiting for our next Skilling Queenslanders for Work, Work Skills Traineeships. Also working on conservation projects across the islands, whilst gaining their Certificate I in Conservation and Ecosystems Management.
