The TIPIAC x Riley Callie Resources National First Nations Education Conference

100% ABORIGINAL OWNED

Together, we're building bridges between traditional knowledge and contemporary education, ensuring that the voices and wisdom of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are at the center of every aspect of learning.

OUR STORY

The National First Nations Education Conference was born from a shared vision between TIPIAC and Riley Callie Resources - two 100% First Nations-owned education businesses committed to transforming how we approach teaching and learning in Australia.

We recognised the need for a space where educators could connect authentically with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledge systems, not as an add-on to existing curricula, but as foundational wisdom that has guided learning for over 65,000 years.

This conference is more than an event - it's a movement toward educational practices that honour Country, celebrate community voices, and provide practical tools for creating inclusive, culturally responsive classrooms.

Following the incredible success of our inaugural conference in Brisbane in 2026, we're excited to announce that the National First Nations Education Conference is heading to Sydney in 2027!

Proudly co-hosted by Riley Callie Resources and TIPIAC, this First Nations-led event will once again bring together educators, school leaders and passionate advocates from across Australia for a day of meaningful learning, connection and inspiration.

Expect powerful First Nations voices, engaging workshops, practical strategies and opportunities to strengthen the inclusion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives in education.
