Scotiabank’s UpLIFTED Women in Finance Development program is a selective program designed for female-identifying, first- and second-year students who have an interest in finance. Our program supports and develops women early in their academic career by providing exposure, insights, and opportunities to learn about finance from experienced professionals.

The development program runs from January 2023 to June 2023. During the program participants will be assigned a mentor, have access to targeted workshops to help participants prepare for a career in finance, and have the opportunity to participate in candid discussions about what it means to be a woman in finance.

Program topics may include, but are not limited to:

  • Career Pathways Workshops
  • Leadership Speaker Series
