Last week it was the graduation of the annual course ‘Career Progression for Women’ at The University of Queensland. This course is conducted bi-annually for women at the University who will continue to progress in their careers and exercise their leadership at UQ. Around 20 women from the whole university are selected to participate in the course, facilitated by impressive women Prof. Polly Parker and Ms. Jennifer Witheriff.

Sonia Roitman (UQ Planning) and Karen McNamara (UQ Environmental Management) from the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences (SEES) participated in the course in 2018. The graduation ceremony was conducted by UQ Vice-Chancellor Peter Høj at Customs House. Congratulations Karen and Sonia!
