On a continent where the gender gap in the technology sector remains a challenge, She is Digital a new training cohort kicked off with hundreds of women on scholarships in Costa Rica, Mexico, and Brazil. This program, spearheaded by Junior Achievement Americas, aims to prepare women from various countries in Latin America and the Caribbean to enter an increasingly competitive and constantly evolving job market.
During this stage, participants will immerse themselves in a curriculum that combines technical skills training, the development of soft skills geared toward employability, and mentoring from professionals in the tech industry. The program focuses not only on training but also on building a supportive and collaborative community.
“Participating in the ‘ She is Digital ’ program has been one of the best training experiences I’ve ever had. I loved the combination of soft and technical skills, and every session exceeded my expectations,” shares Stephania Valeria Ramírez Piña, a participant in the cohort, on LinkedIn (July 27, 2025).
