It was fantastic to have 17 of our IEP Australia Fellows together for a webinar this month, with Joshua Bamford FIEP leading the discussion around the benefits of disability employment.
His topic was the place-based taskforce DET, which is focused on employer education and has managed to improve the regional long-term unemployment rate for the entire Darling Downs region – a massive achievement.
The taskforce works across programs, so if you are keen to see our most at-risk cohorts getting better employment opportunities, consider reaching out to Josh about how you can replicate the taskforce’s success at Joshua.Bamford@mcdtwmba.com.au
Thanks also to Matt Crossingham MAIEP, Lauren Amy Peacock FIEP, Angela Connors FIEP, Andrew Hills FIEP, Dianne Hamer FIEP, Jo Ingold FIEP CAHR, Mark Little FIEP MAICD, Elizabeth West FIEP, Nicole Mattsson FIEP, Ross Hill FIEP, Lily Jin FIEP, Karin Ridgeway FIEP, Maruska Batakovic FIEP, Maria Griffin FIEP, Adam Swist FIEP, Colin Entwistle FIEP and Charissa Mossop FIEP for all being involved in the Fellows’ Collective gathering.
