They will investigate the ICT skills of 1000 women and train 700 of them together with employers. The women will develop a ‘learning to learn’ attitude, a sense of initiative, and the social skills necessary to find a job.
Target groups:
- Unemployed young women
- Women without targeted education of profession
- Women in/after maternity leave
