About the event
This workshop (now delivered online) with Robynne Nelson is comprehensive, intensive and provides a blended learning approach to cultural competency, with education, quizzes, yarning circles, strategic planning and spiritual stories. This allows for interactive learning, lots of discussion and debriefing. The feedback from our first workshop in June was extremely positive.
Robynne  is a proud Yorta Yorta, Jaara, Waywurru woman and has many years experience in Health and Nursing, Recruitment and Training, Aboriginal Affairs, Consultancy and Cultural Competency Education. She has been providing Aboriginal Cultural Education, with a focus on Cultural Competency Training, to a range of agencies, government departments and groups across Victoria since 1998, having trained well over 50,000 people in that time.
