POWERFUL WOMEN LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
Take your career to the next level in the POWER industry by strengthening your capability to make valuable contributions in the sector and improve your effectiveness and competitiveness in a transformative industry.
The POWERful Women Leadership Program (PWLP) is a unique new power sector-oriented program that will develop the next generation of female leaders for the Australian power sector.
The Powerful Women program has two streams each year - the Professional stream for 25 experienced women in technically oriented roles in the power sector, and the Early Career stream for 50+ undergraduates and graduates.
The PWLP will develop the leadership capabilities and skills of 70+ women in the power sector each year through strengthening their understanding of the strategic technical and market issues and leadership challenges associated with transforming the infrastructure and organisations in the sector.
This PWLP program builds on the highly regarded ‘API Summer School’: a 2- week residential technical leadership development program. Professional program participants participate in the full Summer School and extra activities, and Early Career stream participants have a separate program that links to the final days of the Summer School.
Supported by the API's member organisations, over $300K+ will be invested each year in activities for the Powerful Women participants including part and full scholarships to support participation in the program, mentoring, networking, and career and technical leadership development activities.
Applicants who are accepted into the program will be invited to pay the registration* fees.
Registration costs are detailed in the Program Flyer (available in July 2024)
