Can I pay for my ticket via invoice rather than credit card?
Where possible, we prefer tickets to be purchased via our website using a credit card. If this is not possible, we can arrange for you to be invoiced for your registration/s.
Please call Simone Punshon, Business Development and Relationship Manager on (08) 82039400 or email Simone.Punshon@ywca.com.au if you require an invoice.
Why do tickets to the SHE Leads Conference cost significantly less than some other women's leadership conferences that I've seen advertised? Does this mean the quality is lower?
At YWCA we strive to ensure our events are accessible to all women, particularly young women. We try our best to keep our ticket costs as low as possible. Conferences can be costly events to host and we value the support of our corporate sponsors to help us to ensure that we can keep ticket prices down.
However in keeping our costs down there is one thing we will absolutely not skimp on and that's quality. Our speakers are world renowned, our venue is state of the art and our program is jam packed full of practical and inspiring content that will ensure you walk away at the end of the day feeling that every cent spent on your leadership development was worth it.
Now in its 7th year, the SHE Leads Conference has inspired over 1000 South Australian women over the years with many returning year on year to continue to build and develop their leadership capacity. We are proud to offer a cost effective professional and personal development opportunity for women in SA!
