Raymond says his Australian School-based Apprenticeship has given him the opportunity to finish Year 12 and gain formal qualifications all while doing a job he loves. His literacy and numeracy skills have also been enhanced through his engagement with vocational education and training.
Raymond has always enjoyed the peace of the Katherine River and believes that his qualification has provided him with the communication skills and confidence he needed to articulate the significance of the area to his clients. A passionate storyteller, Raymond’s career allows him to connect with people from different countries and backgrounds.
Raymond is ambitious for the future and aims to one day own his own business.
