Australian Institute of Directors

Are you an experienced or emerging female leader in regional Australia who would benefit from an AICD director course?

With support from the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet’s Office for Women, the AICD’s Women’s Regional, Rural and Remote Diversity Scholarship program provides existing and emerging female leaders in these areas across Australia the opportunity to participate in our world-class courses and develop their director careers.

We welcome applicants who reflect the diversity of Australia’s population and encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women, culturally diverse women, women with disability and those in the not-for-profit sector to apply.

The program is offering the following courses to be undertaken in 2023:

• 30 full-fee scholarships for experienced directors to undertake the Company Directors Course; and
• 24 full-fee scholarships for emerging directors to undertake the Foundations of Directorship program.

Each scholarship includes subsidised travel and accommodation (for face to face attendance only), as well as a year’s membership to the AICD including a subscription to our Directorship Opportunities service.

The scholarships are administered by our facilitating partner, the Australian Scholarships Foundation. For more information and to find out if you’re eligible, click here.

Applications are open and close at 11.59 (AEST) on Sunday, 30 October 2022.
