The Organisation

The Tiwi Islands Training and Employment Board (TITEB) is a Tiwi governed, not for profit organisation established to deliver employment, training and education outcomes for the Tiwi Islands communities. Since its establishment by the Tiwi Land Council, TITEB has played a central role in building local workforce capacity and creating pathways into meaningful and sustainable employment.

TITEB is the primary provider of employment, training and allied education services across the Tiwi Islands, delivering a range of integrated programs including Group Training (GTO), Registered Training (RTO), Remote Australia Employment Services (RAES) and Tiwi School Support Services (TSSS). These programs are designed to support individuals at all stages of their journey, from school engagement through to vocational training, apprenticeships and long-term employment.

With a strong focus on community led outcomes, TITEB works closely with local employers, training organisations and community stakeholders to ensure services are culturally appropriate, practical and aligned to the needs of the Tiwi people. The organisation is committed to increasing participation, improving completion rates, and supporting the development of a skilled and sustainable local workforce.

TITEB offers a unique working environment where staff have the opportunity to contribute to meaningful outcomes, build strong relationships within community and play a direct role in supporting long term social and economic development across the Tiwi Islands.
