Women serving on boards of Victorian Government funded not-for-profit organisations can now apply for the 2015 Victorian Women's Governance Scholarship program.
The program offers 34 Victorian women the opportunity to hone their leadership and decision-making skills by undertaking training with the Australian Institute of Company Directors. Successful applicants also receive a year's free membership to the institute.
To be eligible for the scholarship program, participants must:
- be serving on a not-for-profit board or committee, funded by the Victorian Government
- provide a letter of support from the not-for-profit organisation that outlines their suitability and how the organisation will benefit
- live in Victoria and be a member of the Victorian Women's Register
- commit to the time required to complete the course and provide their own transport and travel costs.
This initiative is a partnership between the Victorian Government and the Australian Institute of Company Directors.
Applications close Monday 18 August 2014.
The successful applicants will be announced in October 2014.
