Marion, SA creates new pathways to council employment with Inclusive Traineeship Program
Marion, SA Inclusive Traineeship Program New Pathways
In Progress
Marion focused on Aboriginal, disabled, and Cultural and Linguistically Diverse applicants during an initial one-year pilot. Program participants rotated among council departments to complete projects and gain work experience. The pilot boosted participant confidence while harnessing diverse backgrounds for new solutions to public challenges. Council officials approved an extension of the program through 2022 due to the success of its initial cohort.
Project Succeeded
Marion Council won a 2021 Leadership Excellence Award from the Local Government Professionals Australia, SA in the Excellence in Diversity and Inclusion category.
