Trainers

Applied Archaeology Australia delivers training through a partnership between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.

Qualifications

Applied Archaeology is a team of archaeologists that deliver heritage management training, archaeological methods and on-ground conservation work. We work with numerous partners and registered training organisations to develop and deliver practical heritage management training linked to specific and regional natural and cultural resource management issues and targets.

The Managing Director has a Master of Arts in Archaeology and Heritage, and worked for many years with various community groups and organisations developing and delivering heritage management projects.

Training experience

The team has worked since 2005 delivering heritage management units within the Conservation and Land Management course to numerous Indigenous organisations and individuals, most often in collaboration with regional natural resource management (NRM) bodies, registered training organisations and conservation groups. The Managing Director was the coordinator of the award-winning Restoring Connections Project that developed a highly unique and effective training model that directly engaged with Indigenous people and heritage priorities, at the same time as providing accredited training and delivering NRM outcomes. Now operating under Applied Archaeology, this model has been developed further and expanded, and the team work in partnership with Indigenous people and groups to deliver a number of heritage management and training solutions. For a review of the range of projects, please see our website.

Recent experience

Applied Archaeology Australia has delivered cultural heritage management training to an Indigenous group within the last 12 months (valid at October 2011).
