Building SME Capability in Defence: Workshop Series Launch

Henderson Alliance, in partnership with the City of Cockburn, is launching a series of focused workshops designed to equip SME's with the skills needed to enter and grow within the defence supply chain.

📅 Date: Thursday, 28 August 2025
⏰ Time: 7:00am – 9:30am (breakfast included!)
📍 Venue: 9 Coleville Crescent, Spearwood, WA
💰 Cost: $30 per person

This event features two interactive sessions delivered by industry-recognised training providers:

Improving Conflict Resolution Skills with Aveling
Safe Minds, Safe Work: Managing Psychosocial Hazards with Future Institute

Attendees will gain practical strategies to navigate current workforce challenges and build safer, more resilient teams that drive performance and wellbeing.

Located in one of Australia’s most significant maritime and defence precincts, Cockburn is home to a strong and growing community of small to medium enterprises supporting the wider defence ecosystem. It also supports a $15 billion cluster of marine infrastructure and major industry players including Austal, BAE Systems, Civmec, and Luerssen Australia. The region hosts the Australian Marine Complex, a vital sustainment hub for the Royal Australian Navy’s operations in Western Australia.

This workshop offers an important opportunity for SMEs to align with a strategically critical industry and take the first step toward defence sector readiness.

Whether you're an established SME or just beginning your journey into the defence sector, this session is designed to help you build capability, confidence, and connection with industry expectations.
