Earlier this month, before the #covidー19 pandemic flipped our lives, study and work completely on its head, we launched the girledworld Workplace Mentoring & Employability Skills Program 2020, supported by the Victorian State Government, alongside multiple businesses and technology companies including Silicon Valley communications giant Slack, Square, AGL Energy, EY, News Corp, AFL - Australian Football League and more.
The Program (initially face-to-face and now online incorporating exciting and interactive e-learning, digital programs and virtual mentorship) connects Victorian students with leading women in the business, corporate and startup ecosystem, to give students critical insight into the new world of work, STEM pathways and enterprise skills to boost their employability and future career opportunities.
We were thrilled to place student Mentees from Preshil, The Margaret Lyttle Memorial School with public relations and strategic communications Mentors at Mkt. Communications on March 10, an award-winning agency founded by Skye Tipler Rosenberg, who provided an AMAZING immersive, career education and workplace learning experience for all students!
