EMPLOYMENT: EMPOWERMENT AND ECONOMIC AUTONOMY

By Alejandra Izquierdo | Project Manager

EMPLOYMENT: EMPOWERMENT AND ECONOMIC AUTONOMY OF OUR YOUNG PEOPLE

During the course of the project, the Employment and Entrepreneurship Office (OEE) began a transition in order to be able to broaden the horizon and have more possibilities to offer new opportunities to our graduates, for this reason, our new name is the Center for Employability and Opportunities (CEO).

This first quarter we achieved:

41 employed teenage mothers.
30 teenage mothers with permanent jobs.
The percentage of retention of adolescent mothers in Juanfe is 74% in jobs of 3 months and more.
25 new employers

We identify the skills demanded by the labor market to carry out complementary training focused on strengthening the skills of our teenage mothers

During the first quarter of 2022, 2 courses and 3 workshops were held in which 145 adolescent mothers were trained.
We make companies aware of the dual training strategy to work together on a new proposal for the academic plan of our young mothers
