Women's Executive Development Program (WEXDEV)
ATN Women's Executive Development (ATN WEXDEV) is a dynamic and strategic career development program designed for senior women on the academic and general staffs of these universities. The program is a response to the continued under-representation of women at senior levels in higher education, a situation Australia shares with the international university community.The program has four aims:
- To enhance personal professional development opportunities for senior women to gain appropriate skills and experience for emerging management opportunities.
- To support the growth of organisational cultures that value diversity and encourage improved representation of women in senior executive positions.
- To build on the tangible benefits of the collaborative network between ATN universities by providing significant cross-institutional activities for senior women.
- To strengthen strategic alliances with other organisations, nationally and internationally.
