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.
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.
