About this event

Is your business building relationships with universities so you can grow your high-skilled workforce? Did you know that 26% of businesses surveyed by Ai Group intend to recruit university graduates? 32% of companies also want to provide work experience, internships, and project work to current university students. And, 13% want to increase opportunities for partnering with universities on research projects.

The Ai Group Centre for Education and Training is supporting companies in the South Australian and Victorian defence industry with two programs that connect university students with your company to support unpaid internships and research projects with your company. The Centre is partnering with Defence SA (SA only), and the Defence Science Institute and DMTC (Vic only) to help companies establish, embed, and enhance programs and practices at your company that connect you with universities.

In this comprehensive information session details about the Victorian and the South Australian Defence Industry Scholarships Program will be presented including:

key dates for registration;
introduction to the scholarship website; and
testimonials from scholarship recipients and company internship coordinators who previously participated in the program.
