Hosted in partnership with industry stakeholders, the event will bring together apprentices, tradeswomen, employers, mentors and supporters to celebrate the growing opportunities available to women in trade and strengthen networks across the industry.

Taking place on 19 October in Melbourne, attendees will hear from guest speakers, explore electrical and broader trade career pathways, and gain practical insights from employers and industry representatives.

The event also offers opportunities to connect with women working across the trades, meet mentors and build valuable professional relationships that can support long-term career growth.

The event is open to a broad audience, including prospective apprentices, school leavers, careers counsellors, employers and support organisations. Whether you’re just beginning to explore the trades or are already established in the industry, the evening provides a welcoming environment to learn, network, and be inspired.

The Women Trading Up networking event reflects the importance of creating accessible pathways into skilled trades while supporting greater participation and representation of women across the sector.

Attendees will also enjoy light refreshments, door prizes and giveaways throughout the evening.
