Defence Family Career Comeback Course 2022 Evaluation Report
The Defence Family Career Comeback Course was a new initiative in 2022 to support Defence and veteran family members realise their full career potential following time away from the workforce or their preferred career path.
This career break may be due to raising a family, carer responsibilities, personal illness, disruption due to postings and relocations, or other circumstances.
This bespoke course was designed to address barriers faced by professional women and men trying to re-enter the workforce, and equip participants with the confidence, skills and professional networks to continue to achieve their professional goals after a career break.
The pilot program was a partnership between Defence Families of Australia (DFA) and the Australian Graduate School of Management at the University of NSW Business School (AGSM), and sponsored by the Department of Defence (Defence).
We developed the DFA Strategic Plan 2022-2024 to formalise the high-level strategic direction of the organisation. The plan outlines DFA’s history, recent challenges and successes, advocacy, statistical data on Defence families, DFA’s aims, purpose, charter, values and governance.
The plan is endorsed and introduced by the Minister for Defence Personnel and the Chief of the Defence Force.
