Chief Executive Women is celebrating Interntional Women's Day 2021 with the launch of a new scholarship for women leaders in not-for-profits.

The new Schmidmaier/ Mayne Scholarship is open to mid to senior level managers who have held their current senior managerial roles for at least five years. Applications are now open with four scholarships to be awarded (Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane) to attend the CEW Leaders Program.

This scholarship has been established in recognition of the commitment and contributions of Dagmar Schmidmaier AM and Lynette Mayne AM, Directors of the CEW Leaders Program inspiring hundreds of women to develop their leadership capacity.
