Grants of up to $30,000 are available to eligible organisations that are able to boost the representation of women in the trades.
The Connecting Women to Trades Grant Round will enable organisations to engage with Smart and Skilled providers to deliver fee-free part qualifications. The projects will offer an introductory experience and targeted support for women considering a career in trades.
A total of $200,000 is available in the round, with organisations able to apply for amounts up to $30,000.
The key objective is to increase the appeal of trades to women, help to remove cultural and societal barriers, and support learning to maximise vocational outcomes.
Applications close next Tuesday 7 December 2021.
Successful projects will be announced in January and will need to be completed by 30 June 2022.
