Train young Colombian women for a career in STEM

Yudith, a Venezuelan migrant, arrived in Colombia 4 years ago with her family, looking for a better future and a job opportunity that would allow her to continue her studies in systems and give a better quality of life to her daughters.  

A friend recommended Academia Geek to her and she assures that this changed her life forever. She had intensive training for 12 weeks, but the support of her family was fundamental to achieve the goal of successfully completing her process. "I am currently in a job I love, doing something I studied for, forging a future for my daughters and for my family, all this thanks to Academia Geek" states Yudith.  

A total of 43 women have been trained at Academia Geek in the last three months, acquiring the necessary knowledge to become Junior FrontEnd Web Developers, breaking paradigms in the technology sector, being employed in recognized companies, with good working conditions and decent salaries to transform their lives and those of their families.
