WHS women offered funding grants
Scholarship funding for women who work in the WHS sector is being made available by Women & Leadership Australia.
Building on the success of last year’s ‘100 Days for Change’ campaign, the initiative is designed to support the development of female leaders across Australia’s HR and workplace health/safety sector.
The campaign is providing women with grants of between $3000 and $7000 to enable participation in a range of leadership development programs.
The scholarship funding is provided with the specific intent of providing powerful and effective development opportunities for HR and workplace health/safety sector women; however, the funding is strictly limited and has to be allocated prior to the end of March.
Find out more and register your interest by completing the expression of interest form prior to Friday 15 March: www.wla.edu.au/register.
