Week Program: Women Face

week program: When women succeed, families and communities succeed, according to Metro News. The 24-week program will assist women in getting their Cisqo Networking Certificate, which is in critical need by employers in the province, according to YYC Net Lab Mike Simoens, who is assisting with the project. This is a project that recognizes the unique barriers that immigrant and indigenous women face, particularly in the STEM sector, said McLean. There aren't enough highly-skilled, computer networking experts in the world, and there probably never will be, said Simoens. Only 15 will make it through this year. The technology is growing faster than we can keep up with, and we can't keep going with an industry that's systematically ignoring half of the potential workforce. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
