Partners in a Learning Culture is a five-year national strategy (2000-2005), with an accompanying implementation blueprint for increasing opportunities for Indigenous people in vocational education and training.
Partners in a Learning Culture aims to:
- contribute to reconciliation and justice, and
- support community economic development and sustainability among Indigenous Australians.
The Australian Indigenous Training Advisory Council (AITAC) oversaw the implementation of Partners in a Learning Culture. AITAC reported to the ANTA Board and was jointly chaired by a member of the ANTA Board and an Indigenous representative. It included representatives from all stakeholders including states and territories, the Australian Government, ACCI, ACTU and Indigenous organisations.
With ANTA functions having transferred to the Department of Education, Science and Training on 1 July 2005, AITAC had their final meeting on 16 June 2005.
An action group, endorsed by the State and Territory CEOs, will be established to progress the best way forward to ensure an effective voice for all learners in the new national training system.
