Forum Communicators is proud to be affiliated with the National Council of Women Queensland (NCWQ) and we are actively involved in the NCWQ’s annual Bursary Program.

There are a range of bursaries on offer each year which are awarded to Queensland female tertiary student applicants who are currently studying full-time.

Forum sponsors one of these bursaries and the successful applicant for our bursary must be:

  • Able to demonstrate a record of achievement in the communication field, either through their studies, public speaking or debating.
  • Able to demonstrate commitment to leadership within their local community.
  • An Australian Citizen or Permanent Resident of Australia.
