POWERful WOMEN is a new industry-focused and delivered leadership program focused on technically oriented roles in the power sector that will assist over 200 female professionals, graduates, and undergraduate students to build job-focused skills and knowledge, career plans and leadership capabilities and paths.
The program is led by the Australian Power Institute and supported by our 20+ industry members with financial support from the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet’s Office for Women.
The program links to the API’s flagship annual residential Summer School and includes a Professionals pathway for emerging female leaders and an Early Career pathway for the next generation of female leaders in the power sector.
