Female athlete

At PropelHER, we're recruiting college athletes to the field of security!

PropelHER, presented by SIA's Women in Security Forum, is a feeder program of collegiate and professional female athletes into the security industry. The focus is to open the funnel of career possibilities to you far beyond the courts, tracks, and fields. The dynamic nature of security work necessitates individuals like you who can swiftly adapt to changing circumstances and assimilate new information. Your proficiency in strategic adaptation and swift decision-making makes you well-suited for the unpredictable nature of security roles.

Take advantage of what WISF PropelHER has to offer. We are creating pathways to accommodate your unique schedules and commitments. Whether it is flexible internships, remote work opportunities, or robust mentorship programs, PropelHER can facilitate your transition from athletic careers to security roles.
