Dear friend of PNV,
Thank you so much for your past support of our program that offers Vietnamese youth acces to quality education and IT training to find quality careers and leave poverty in a sustainably way!
In today’s age of the fourth industrial revolution, there is a great opportunity that IT education as one of the solutions to reduce poverty. IT graduates have higher chances of securing long-term and decent-paying jobs compared to other specializations. But there is still a huge gender gap between men and women in this industry. In Vietnam, only 6.87% of employees in the technology industry are female, based on the market report in 2020.
This further motivates us to continue conducting our mission of enhancing educational diversity and digital inclusion in society in Vietnam.
Passerelles Numériques Vietnam (PNV) is an international NGO, established in 2010 in Da Nang, with a license to operate in Vietnam issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs - Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Every year, PNV offers a free 3-year IT
training program at our center for underserved young people aged 18-23 in Central Vietnam. All training, accommodation,
and living expenses of our students are covered by PNV. Upon completion of the program, students receive a College Diploma from Danang Vocational College (DanaVTC) and an International Certificate from Passerelles Numériques.
To share the impact of what support like yours makes, please see the attached 2024 PNV Social Impact Report.
In solidarity,
The team from PNV and Passerelles Numériques.
