This is the last call for all women currently working in the maritime sector to express interest in a limited pool of scholarship funding that has to be allocated by the end of 2019.
The fee support opportunity provides women with funding of between $2,000 and $7,000 (per applicant, subject to a set of selection criteria being met) to undertake a range of leadership development programs commencing early next year.
Quite a number of women from the maritime sector have applied, with many high-calibre candidates being awarded the partial scholarships. Industry stakeholders and creditors want to take this opportunity to thank all partners and associations for their support to date.
To ensure equitable access to the grants, WLA has extended the funding window until December 6.
It is important to note that it is uncertain when the funding window will be available again; more information and initial expressions of interest are available here: www.wla.edu.au/funding.html
We encourage you to inform Australian Naval Institute members and contacts of the final opportunity to register, and below is some wording that is appropriate in support of the initiative.
