More than 58 000 Indigenous Australians undertook some publicly funded vocational education and training (VET) in 2003. This publication presents the first findings of a national survey conducted across five different regions, which investigated Indigenous people's experiences with training. The project aimed to provide insight into two broad questions: What individual, community and economic benefits do Indigenous Australians get from training? What encourages Indigenous Australians to start and stay in training? Also provided are five brochures summarising the findings for each of the regions (major cities, inner regional, outer regional, remote and very remote), as well as further documentation about the survey itself.
