The Australian Sport Mentoring Collective
The program aims to accelerate 25+ women’s careers through connecting them with 25+ influential leaders who uphold unique talents, advocacy skills and influential power.
In recent months we’ve witnessed a record number of women come forward for professional development support and the number one request is the need for a mentor program.
The Australia Sports Commission (ASC) is thrilled to pilot an exciting new mentoring program called ‘The Australian Sport Mentoring Collective.’
The program will connect women who are eager to progress in their career with mentors who are passionate about developing others, have strong advocacy skills and are well connected in their field.
The three-month program will kick off online in May and all participants will receive formal training and support each step of the way.
