Positive results are evident from a number of University initiatives that build upon Indigenous perspectives. These initiatives include the annual development of a comprehensive Indigenous education statement, the community-based Indigenous Reference Group, the Vice-Chancellors Indigenous Cadetships, training for staff in cultural competency and the combined work of the Indigenous Academic Support Unit and the Dean of Indigenous Research and Education. In addition to personal enquiries from students/school support staff, 982 Indigenous high-school-age children and 215 school support staff and/or community representatives interacted with the Indigenous Academic Support Unit throughout 2006 as part of planned activities. Taste of Uni is a program championed by the Dean of Indigenous Research and Education and implemented by the Indigenous Academic Support Unit. Each year in its three years of operation has seen the program grow dramatically from 49 participants in the pilot held in 2004 to 490 participants in 2006. Four one-day Taste of Uni days were held, three in Darwin and one in Alice Springs. The participants came from 18 schools from across the Northern Territory. The Indigenous Academic Support Unit has coordinated visits to CDU campuses (Casuarina and Alice Springs) by 12 schools with 99 students and 69 school and community members (not including Taste of Uni). In organising the visits, schools were asked beforehand to nominate key interest areas of students, so that personalised tours and talks from relevant CDU staff could be arranged. tracks the delivery of education and training in the Central Australian region, by community and by provider. In 2006, background work was completed towards more effi cient and effective use of existing capital infrastructure as part of the Memorandum of Cooperation between CDU and the Batchelor Institute of Indigenous Tertiary Education. Step 4. Customer service The approach taken by the Remote Coordination team in 2006 has been one of facilitation. The team has placed customer service as the pre-eminent role to be played by them in order to achieve individual and community outcomes, with a focus on eliminating barriers to successful education and training outcome achievement. The Remote Coordination team was able to work with other areas of the University to deliver 76 VTE in schools programs, with some 765 participants in remote and regional areas.

In 2006, 217 Indigenous students were enrolled in higher education. In the Vocational and Technical Education area, almost 40% of the student population identifed as Indigenous.

The number of A new approach to community training Jilkminggan is a remote community located on the banks of the Roper River about 150 kilometers from Katherine. In 2006, Charles Darwin University was invited to implement a new approach to training in Jilkminggan. The approach incorporates the completion of a skills audit for individuals in the community. The skills audit is used to identify training requirements and inform training program development. Training delivery subsequently began in August, when a Mobile Adult Learning Unit (MALU) was relocated to Jilkminggan from Alice Springs and used as a community training centre for several months. Programs delivered by Charles Darwin University in Jilkminggan included computer and business skills, as well a new introduction to the leadership and supervision program.
