The 2009 FOGS Indigenous Employment and Careers Expo will provide
Cairns Indigenous job seekers with the unique opportunity to connect with some of Queensland’s
most prominent employment, education and training providers including Australia
Post, Virgin Blue, TAFE Queensland and Ergon Energy. Exhibitors will have
a range of positions available for job seekers to apply for on the day.
The Former Origin Greats is a non profit organization made up of 166 former
Queensland State of Origin players which is committed to developing initiatives
to narrow the employment and training gap between Indigenous and non Indigenous
Australians. This expo will be the first of six (6) FOGS Indigenous
Employment and Careers Expo’s, supported by the Australian Government,
that will be held throughout Queensland
in 2009.
The Australian Government is providing funding for the six expos which will
include displays from employers and industries in each of the regions and will
provide Indigenous job seekers and school students with a chance to meet with
employers and discuss employment and training opportunities.
