Women in transport mentoring program

The Victorian Government’s Women in Transport Mentoring Program is a six-month, industry-wide initiative offering professional development and networking opportunities. It is your opportunity to be part of the future of women in transport.

Round 2 applications for our 2019 program are now open until Monday 27 May 2019 for anyone with at least one year of experience in the transport industry, whether in the public or private sector. Mentees must be female, and mentors can be male or female with at least five years of experience in their field.

Round 2 of 2019 will run from 1 July to 31 December 2019 and participants are supported with three professional development sessions, ongoing assistance and monthly guidance to structure mentee-mentor meetings.

For information and to apply, please read our guide and access the link to the Mentorloop application form.

This mentoring program is delivered by the Level Crossing Removal Project as part of the Department of Transport’s $2 million Women in Transport package of initiatives and business improvements. It aims to encourage more women to enter and stay in the transport sector, which supports the Victorian Government’s Gender Equality Strategy.
