The ARA is encouraging women to apply for the Women in Rail Professional Development Scholarships, which close on 15 November.  

As part of our Women in Rail Strategy 2023-2026, the ARA provides scholarship opportunities for women in the rail industry to undertake professional and leadership development courses.   

The courses support women across a range of professional levels and industry experience, including senior and emerging leaders.     

For 2024-2025, the ARA will sponsor:  

  • Twelve women to participate in the Women Rising program (online)  
  • One executive-level woman to participate in the Chief Executive Women Leaders Program (in person)
