Pathways Our Way Academy
The Pathways Our Way Academy, known as POWA, supports Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to complete training or traineeships in a variety of roles and qualifications. These include:
Empowering Mob, Creating Pathways
School-based training
In 2022-2023, we have had 42 school-based trainees, 27 non-school-based trainees and seven other community members undertake traineeships and work-readiness programs with IUIH.
Pathways in Allied Health
POWA works with schools to ensure Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander learners in years 10-12 are aware of, and can opt to apply for a training pathway in allied health, with the opportunity to join our team in a vast range of roles with IUIH across the allied health sector.
Working with RTOs
In 2022-2023, we have had 42 school-based trainees, 27 non-school-based trainees and seven other community members undertake traineeships and work-readiness programs with IUIH.
Intergenerational traineeships
Below is a video of the story of two of our trainees explaining the benefits of a POWA traineeship through IUIH within the intergenerational program. Find out what they did next!
POWA is supported through partnerships
With universities, Registered Training Organisations, and The Department of Employment, Small Business and Training (DESBT).
