Message from the National Program Manager NBPU TIS, Eileen Van Iersel

March has flown by, and it’s been a busy month for our Program Officers and the NBPU TIS Team.

A big thank you goes out to all the TIS Teams who have submitted their Performance Reports for feedback. These reports provided invaluable insights and we truly appreciate the effort and thoughtfulness that went into each submission. This process has been a fantastic opportunity for knowledge building and sharing, and we’re grateful for everyone’s contribution to our collective success.

Program Officers are looking forward to receiving your upcoming Activity Work Plans for the period July 1 2025 to June 30 2026, due to NBPU on 2 July 2025. At the same time, we’ve been working hard to expand our team. We’re thrilled to welcome Ronald and Astrid to the NBPU TIS Team. Their experience and skills will be a great addition to our ongoing effort.

In other news, the NRPP procurement is now live. For more information, please visit nrpp.com.au.

We’re finalising the details for our June National TIS Workshop. We hope to see as many of you there as possible. Registration will be opening soon, and we’re looking forward to engaging with the broader community to continue our collaborative efforts. It’s going to be a fantastic event and we can’t wait to connect with you all in person.

I will be heading to the US for the month of April. During my absence, our Workforce Development Advisor, Kerindy Clarke will step in as the Acting National Program Manager. I’m confident that Kerindy will continue to lead the team effectively, ensuring everything runs smoothly

With new faces on the team, an important procurement and an exciting workshop on the horizon, there’s a lot to be excited about. Thank you once again to everyone for your continued dedication and collaboration. Here’s to even more progress in the months to come.
