ETC is proud to stand alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, supporting their journeys through employment, training, and business development.
Our 2024–25 Indigenous Outcomes Report Card highlights the real impact of our programs and the dedication of our Indigenous Services Team (IST) across the regions we serve.
ETC has a strong reputation for investing in programs that deliver positive training and employment outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. This investment not only benefits our customers — it strengthens our communities.

These partnerships are central to our success and ensure our services remain culturally responsive and community-led.
