Do members of the QIECC represent a specific Indigenous community?
No. Given the diversity of Aboriginal communities and Torres Strait Islander communities across Queensland, it would require an exceptionally large membership to represent each and every community on the Committee. Members were appointed based on their relevant experience and expertise in the area of education (preschooling and schooling), training and/or higher education as well as their cultural strength and capacity to consult more widely with Indigenous Queenslanders. How are members selected?Members have been appointed by the Minister for Education, Training and the Arts through an open expression of interest, advertised extensively throughout Queensland.
