Education, Training & Employment is a major area of focus for the Bennelong Foundation and the Board approved a scholarship/internship for a student from  RMIT and Macquarie University.  Not only does the student receive a scholarship for the years they study but they also have an internship within the Bennelong/Bangarra group of companies in Melbourne and Sydney, providing them with invaluable work experience which relates back to their field of study.
