Federal Minister for Vocational Education, Training and Apprenticeships and the Attorney-General of Australia, meet with Motivation Foundation.

The Foundation and the Civil and Mining Academy were honoured by a visit from The Hon Steve Irons MP, Christian Porter MP and Donna Faragher MLC to see the successful training and employment model at the West Swan for-purpose site.

The Ministers have provided insight on how they can best support our young participants on their pathways to industry.

They spent time with our new students commencing their pre-traineeship in Civils and Resources and viewed some concrete poured for traffic barriers as part a Motivation Foundation community project for the Town of Northam and the Vintage Car Club of WA.

We were delighted to have hosted this visit which shows the profile and traction the Academy is achieving within the Education and Government sectors

Thank you to Donna Faragher MLC for her significant support.
