ISA Cultural Awareness training is delivered by Tony Shaw in a seminar-style presentation. Tony’s impactful delivery is supported by his business partner Carola and their compelling audio-visual presentation. It’s sometimes harrowing, often confronting, yet witty and thoroughly educational.
Tony is an inspirational builder of cultural bridges. Sharing his own experiences in the context of Australia’s hidden history, he advocates for strong Aboriginal communities with a focus on positive traditional values to combat the effects of past policies.
A dynamic, informative, and emotional journey, you learn to engage more effectively with Aboriginal people, enhancing cultural inclusivity and improving workplace productivity.
Whether you’re taking your first steps or seeking advanced insights, ISA training provides valuable knowledge and skills.
By completing ISA Training Modules 1, 2 and 3, you experience comprehensive insights into Aboriginal culture, history, and contemporary issues.
