Women Who Weld (WWW) aims to provide an opportunity and safe environment for young women to try the practical skill of welding. This provides the student with an understanding of welding and an idea if STEAM school subjects and a trade career pathway is something they wish to explore further.

With the goal of building gender diversity in the workplace, ‘Women Who Weld’ aims to address our national trade skills shortage. The program encourages young women to consider a trade pathway where 76% of jobs within Queensland’s manufacturing sector are occupied by men.
