1. VWL & WBA Law Student Mentoring Program

Victorian Women Lawyers (VWL) and the Women’s Barristers’ Association (WBA) proudly present the annual Law Student Mentoring Program. The program is endorsed by the Honourable Justice Rita Incerti and sponsored by K & L Gates.

Now in its 13th year, the program is a wonderful opportunity for female and female-identifying law students to gain insight into working in the law, develop valuable networks and share ideas with mentors in the legal profession.

Importantly, this program creates opportunities for professional connection and support as the legal community navigates the current climate.

For mentors, there is the satisfaction that comes from helping to shape the career of a law student.

Applications to participate in this year’s program as a mentor or mentee are now open.
