International Women's Day 2018

What is International Women's day?

International Women's Day (IWD) is a global event that celebrates positive change for women. Each year there is a theme to support women and this year the theme is about the unification of individuals, colleagues and communities to motivate each other and commit to accelerating equality for women.

International Women's Day is on the 8th of March and the official hashtag for the day is #PressforProgress

Women at TAFE NSW

Women are supported and welcome at TAFE NSW campuses no matter their industry preference. TAFE NSW encourages and facilitates a learning environment for every student to succeed within their chosen career pathway.

Being yourself and enjoying what you do rather than doing what you think you should do is key to a successful and rewarding career.

Today, we are seeing a growing trend of female students who have shifted their mindset away from traditional professions and are succeeding in an array of industry sectors. They are true to themselves and have found happiness simply by following their passion to achieve their ultimate career.
