Does your work involve engaging with, providing services to or developing policy for the residents in regional and remote communities?

Would you like to learn more about planning, engagement projects and developing your intercultural engagement skills?

The Remote Engagement Essentials (REE) Workshop is designed to provide participants with an overview of the essential components for effective engagement in regional and remote Aboriginal communities. Held over 2 days, the face-to-face REE Workshops are delivered by licensed IAP2 trainer, Rob Gravestocks and hosted by the Remote Information and Engagement team.

The workshops include interactive activities, group discussions and presentations on the Remote Engagement and Coordination Strategy, BushTel and the Aboriginal Interpreters Service.

Annual sessions are held in Darwin, Katherine and Alice Springs with an additional 3 sessions held in alternating regional centres such as Alyangula, Nhulunbuy and Tennant Creek.

Due to a very successful 2024 with the REE Workshops, our team is currently working through a backlog of enrolments in Darwin sessions. If you can, we encourage interested parties to attend available sessions in our regional centres.

All service providers are welcome to apply for the workshops, however priority consideration will be given to applicants based on NT Government employee status, upcoming engagement processes in remote NT communities, and job relevancy to course outcomes.
