Women into IT (2005 - 2007)

The aim of this project was to increase IT skills for women looking for employment or business or wishing to go into further study in IT. The project team engaged 338 women living in East London.

Women into IT was a successful project, particularly in the field of targeting Ethnic Minority women - an area that often fails in these types of initiatives. The project indicated an excellent success rate in engaging hard to reach beneficiaries who would consider themselves as Black and Minority Ethnic (BME).

The project supported 160 NVQ L2/L3 133 women to complete their Eurpean Computer Driving Licence on the project, 12 women progressed into employment, 20 women progressed into further education.

84% of the women found that the ECDL course provided them with the relevant skills they needed to source employment in the IT sector.
