The Bidyiri Yaga Program

We work collaboratively with your company to create a bespoke, sustainable program to develop and nurture employment and engagement of Indigenous people within your business. Bidyiri Yaga will create a lifelong, sustainable change for you, your company and Indigenous People.

BudbyYaga Group believes that following three pillars are the best foundation to embed Indigenous culture into your company.

Embedding Cultural Capability Workshop

Our workshop covers a range of topics including:

  • History (from pre-settlement to modern)

  • Trauma

  • Job awareness and training

  • A brighter future

Through theory and practical sessions, our workshop will give you a deeper understanding and ability to embed culture into your company.

1.

Indigenous Pre-employment

We work with your Indigenous trainees/employees and cover important employment topics like:

  • Information specific to industry and role

  • Living away from home

  • Budgeting and finance

  • Job readiness & more!

Employees are provided invaluable information and skills to give them the best possible start on their employment journey.

2.

Mentoring

Our Indiengeous mentoring services include mentors who:

  • Have experience across various sectors

  • Create safe learning and working environments

  • Culturally educate Indigenous employees on navigating work, culture & life balance

  • Support your leaders to retain Indigenous employees

Indigenous mentors are a valuable resource to address indigenous employment retention rates. Through our mentorship and support program, we aim to increase productivity and strong working relationships within your business.

“As indigenous traditional owners we know what it’s like to grow up facing adversity day in and day out.

Overcoming our struggles and now running our own successful business, we understand what it means to truly Bidyiri Yaga (“work for your dreams”). ”
