Batchelor Institute, formerly known as Batchelor College, began as a small annex of Kormilda College, then a residential school for Aboriginal students on the outskirts of Darwin, providing short training programs for Aboriginal teacher aides and assistants in community schools. Programs have been expanded and diversified in response to the importance Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have placed on gaining accredited awards in the areas of professional and para-professional occupations. Batchelor's vision is to develop a unique place of knowledge and skills, where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians can undertake journeys of learning for empowerment and advancement while strengthening identity.
