When they say "Qantas states a number of graduates have been employed within the
group"
why can't they say what that number is?

As the courses are largely taxpayer funded, should we not have a bit more transparency, like the graduate labour market outcomes from universities 2023-gos-national-report.pdf ?

Is it really legal to offer scholarships to only women these days? How is this compatible with the Sex Discrimination Act? It's not as if women have been excluded from the industry on the basis of their sex (though that itself is a potential minefield when Qantas define it by birth certificate or passport). Australian women have the same opportunities as the men including when it comes to access to education and funding. So why should the men be barred from applying for a scholarship' if it isn't based on ability and equal opportunity for all applicants then isn't there a risk of tokenism and resentment?
