Application form

We are delighted you are interested in applying for Leadership WA’s Rising Leadership Program. Entry to the Program is competitive. You will be contacted within 4 weeks of submitting your application form to arrange an interview. All applications are then assessed by a selection panel and you will be advised of the outcome of your application once the selection process has been completed.

During the selection process, we aim to make the Program cohort a diverse mix of backgrounds, industries, occupations, and experience. This is to ensure the cohort has a wide diversity of thought, which makes for a more rewarding experience for all participants.

A limited number of full or partial scholarships may be available, thanks to the generosity of donors to the Leadership WA Foundation. Your assessment of suitability for the Rising Program is not affected by any request for scholarship support. Alternatively, submitting your application early may create the opportunity for an early offer of a place so you may then be able to source your own funding support, if required.

WHEN APPLYING, PLEASE NOTE:
• All applications are confidential.
• All questions must be completed in full and the declaration must be signed.
