In a ground breaking program called remote area teacher education program (RATEP), Indigenous people are given the opportunity to teach, share their stories, and preserve their cultural heritage. Kathy, the head of Department for Student Services at a state college in North Queensland, is a shining example of this transformative journey. She embarked on a path that started at TAFE Queensland, culminated in a bachelor's degree, and now she inspires and educates the next generations. Listen closely as Kathy unveils her remarkable story.
