EDUCATION & Assistance

Available Programs & Courses

Five Bridges delivers community programs and nationally recognised training that create practical pathways into employment, further study and independence.

We work across industries including community services, individual support, transport, security and business, delivering training that builds confidence, practical skills and real employment outcomes. While our courses have a strong First Nations focus, many are open to all community members who meet eligibility requirements.

Five Bridges runs programs that directly benefit the local community. Working with local elders in the Ipswich and Brisbane regions, a range of programs have been developed to meet areas of need for Indigenous people and their families, as well as supporting the wider community.
