The Jam Project

Fortnightly mentor catch-ups

When you join The Jam Project, we’ll pair you with a mentor – a female in her 20s who will be there to support and guide you throughout the year. 

You’ll meet with her fortnightly to discuss any issues you’re facing or emotions you’re feeling. Connecting with someone who’s walked in your shoes not so long ago – and not in your inner circle – can:

• Give you a fresh perspective
• Provide a safe space for you to open up
• Allow you to ask questions without fear of judgement 

And who knows, you might come back as a mentor yourself in just a few years!

Monthly Jam Sessions

Throughout the year, you’ll attend monthly events and presentations from inspiring guest speakers. For example, in 2022 we heard from Ally Watson OAM, founder and CEO of 'Code Like a Girl' - encouraging more female developers in the industry. 

Our Jam Sessions cover different topics every year – but here’s a snapshot of what we’ve explored in the past:

Jam Sessions also create the opportunity for you to meet and connect with other participants.
