Nathan, who is hosted by Centennial Coal, has been named one of five finalists for Indigenous Trainee of the Year in the upcoming 2014 NSW & ACT Group Training Association (GTA) Awards. Winners of the awards will be announced on Friday October 17th.
The young father and footy fanatic was also one of 21 group training apprentices and trainees from around Australia invited to attend a Today’s Skills; Tomorrow’s Leaders leadership program held during August, in Canberra.
HVTC CEO Sharon Smith congratulated Nathan on his achievements as well as the six other HVTC apprentices and trainees nominated as finalists in the NSW & ACT GTA awards.
