Catalyst Diversity Program

About the program
Are you a first-year university student looking to explore career pathways in law or other industries? Our Catalyst Diversity Program is a gateway to gain cross-industry exposure, develop professional and personal skills, and gain insight into the integral role of diversity and inclusion in business. This is your chance to step into a world of possibilities.

We welcome students from diverse backgrounds, including but not limited to low socio-economic background, disability or caring for someone with a disability, First Nations, ethnicity or culturally diverse background, LGBT+ or veteran. 
What you'll do
 During an immersive two-day, in-person program, you'll participate in workshops, group activities, and presentations to gain insight into the legal industry, explore diversity and inclusion and develop skills needed to kick-start your career.

We'll also personally match you with a mentor from the firm who can offer personalised advice and guidance to support your professional growth and career planning post-program.
