Make BEP work for your business: Join ICN Victoria’s contractor training session to master GEAPs in tender and delivery
ICN Victoria’s Building Equality Policy (BEP) Training session is your chance to get practical about gender equality on construction projects and walk away clearer on what good looks like in both tender and delivery.
Event overview
This focused online training session is designed to make the policy feel workable, not theoretical, with real examples, Q&A, and space to ask the questions you can’t put in a formal submission. This is not-to-be-missed.
- Date: Tuesday 31 March
- Time: 3:30PM – 4:30PM (AEDT)
- Format: Live online session (StreamYard)
- Host: ICN Victoria BEP team, led by Lindsay Rattray, BEP Adviser
Who this is for
This event is tailored for construction contractors delivering, or looking to deliver, on Victorian Government projects worth 20 million and above where BEP is applicable
You’ll get the most value if you are:
- Tier 1, 2 or 3 construction contractors
- Project managers and delivery leads responsible for meeting BEP targets on site.
- Bid, commercial or HR leaders preparing, reviewing, or implementing Project Organisation GEAPs.
What you’ll get out of it
By the end of the session, you’ll be clearer, faster, and more confident in how you approach BEP and GEAPs across the project lifecycle. You will:
- Benefit from ICN Victoria demystifying GEAPs across tender and delivery: Understand the difference between GEAP requirements in the tender phase and what needs to happen once you’re on site, with practical examples, tips, and common pitfalls to avoid.
- Learn how to complete Project Organisation GEAPs with confidence: Walk through key sections of Project Org GEAPs step-by-step, so your submissions are stronger, more complete, and aligned with policy expectations.
- Turn policy into on-the-ground actions: Translate BEP gender targets into real workforce planning, recruitment, and site culture changes that support women across trade, non‑trade and management roles.
- Hear what “good” looks like to government and project owners: Get insight into how GEAPs are assessed, what strengthens a submission, and how contractors are successfully embedding BEP in their business.
- Connect and ask questions in real time, share challenges with other contractors, and hear directly from ICN Victoria on where to find tools, templates and extra support.
Why it matters for your business
BEP isn’t just another compliance box – it directly links to your ability to bid, win and deliver major Victorian Government construction work.
Attending will help your business:
- Strengthen future bids by lifting the quality and clarity of your GEAPs.
- Reduce risk and rework by getting answers up front, rather than after submission.
- Improve site culture, performance and retention by embedding practical gender equality measures.
- Build your reputation as a contractor that takes BEP seriously and delivers on it.
