Welcome to your learning community at Batchelor Institute of Indigenous Tertiary Education
On Kungarakan and Warai Country at Batchelor and Arrernte Country at Mparntwe (Alice Springs), and through our remote learning centres, we support you every step of the way. Our Both Ways philosophy places Indigenous Australian knowledges, cultures and voices at the centre of your studies. You learn in a culturally safe environment that strengthens your connection to Country, family and community while building the practical skills and qualifications you need for the future you choose.
You are part of a strong network of students, Elders, staff and alumni who walk together on the journey of liberation through education our way. Whether you need academic support, pastoral care, financial assistance or opportunities to connect with other students, we are here to help you succeed.
