The Central Australian Education and Training Network (CAETN) is
a network of over 150 members representing public and private
Territory, South Australian and Australian government agencies,
Indigenous organisations and businesses from across the Central
Desert region. This Network, based in Alice Springs, has been
operational for over 5 years and seeks to talk and work together to
improve demand-responsive Vocational Education and Training (VET)
for Aboriginal people.
CAETN holds regular meetings in Alice Springs and a number of
sub-committees work throughout the year on member-identified
projects of key interest. Members are informed about current issues
through a range of invited guest speakers.
For more information about CAETN you can contact Alicia Boyle,
