Women in Non-Traditional Trades (WiNTT) Scholarships
2025 Applications are NOW OPEN for the Women in Non-Traditional Trades Scholarship (WiNTT) - a program to help women break down stereotypes and train for their dream career.
The program will provide 400 women with a one-off $5,000 payment to support them to undertake eligible vocational education and training (VET) qualifications at WA TAFE colleges from 2024.
The WiNTT program is part of the State Government's $3 million four-year investment to help reduce barriers to training and support increased workforce participation in traditionally male-dominated industries such as building and construction, automotive and electrical, and engineering and mining.
Break stereotypes and break into your dream career. See if you’re eligible for a $5,000 scholarship for women.
