Working in partnership with the National Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (NACCHO), the HSSO has developed the First Nations Health Worker Traineeship Framework which outlines the program roll out over the next 4 years.
The traineeships are focused on the Certificate III and IV Aboriginal Health Worker and Practitioner qualifications through a combination of classroom-based training, supplemented by on-the-job learning with the Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHOs). The program will produce a steady pipeline of skilled and qualified workers, helping address ACCHO skills shortages across Australia especially in regional, rural and remote areas.
