BETA in 2023
2023 was a time of change and excitement at BETA. We started the year with big news, and wrapped up with big data; several of our projects related to workforce issues, including disability and return to work; and we continued to engage with the big issues in behavioural science, connecting with colleagues across the APS and beyond.
How the language in cyber security job ads impacts diversity
BETA worked with the Department of Science, Industry and Resources, and Jobs and Skills Australia, to analyse

We aimed to understand how the language currently used in cyber security job ads may discourage women from
applying, and how these job ads could be improved.
