Since 2022, CPL - a leading provider of supports for people living with disability and their families - has funded 23 TAFE Queensland scholarships, supporting First Nations peoples to train with TAFE Queensland in any study area at any campus, or online.
CPL Group Chief Executive Officer Rhys Kennedy said the scholarship partnership was put in place as part of CPL’s commitment to reconciliation following the launch of their first Reconciliation Action Plan in 2021.
“We are funding these TAFE Queensland scholarships with the aim of removing obstacles faced by First Nations people, and/or people with disabilities, who aspire to pursue and advance their careers in their chosen domains,” Mr Kennedy said.
“As these recipients succeed, we hope their stories of accomplishment encourage others to pursue their own aspirations.”
