Our Projects
Australian Skills and Assessment Centre ( ASAC) is regularly engaged to devise strategy and implement innovative workplace projects to attract, train and retain talent for business organisations, not for profits and industry groups. The following projects are a snap shot of recent initiatives.
01
Empowering young women to pursue a career in the finance industry
ASAC was engaged by The Office of Prime Minister and Cabinet, Office of Women and the Financial Planning Association of Australia to deliver a series of workshops to educate young women about the career opportunities in the finance industry.
Finance has traditionally been viewed as a male domain, however it is now widely acknowledged women are becoming independently wealthier and involved in financial decisions in the home and in life.
The workshops were aimed at senior high school female students and explored the disruption in the finance industry, jobs in demand and ​the benefits for women working in the finance industry. The workshops also showcased various pathways and words of advice from successful women within the finance industry.
