We are super excited to share some of the #data for the 2024-25 Cohort. The importance of #data is that it tells the story for you. With the InnovateHER Technology Rotation Program, we had a goal of bringing in 80% women and 20% men, to really help bring more talent into #technology, but with a focus on bringing more #women into tech. This data tells you that we have initially met the goal of bringing in a cohort that is female focused. We admitted 86% women and 14% men into the 2024-25 cohort. This data also tells you a few other things: 🚺 Most of these women are currently employed, so they have an active interest in #technology and this will create opportunities to bring more women into the tech workforce. 🚺 We have several women that are students, so we are catching them at an earlier stage, to show them what a more holistic view of technology and bring them into technology roles. 🚺 We have allies that are not intimidated or afraid to spend the next year growing and learning with a group of mostly women. This is not our normal workforce dynamic in the tech industry, so it matters! Congratulations to each and every cohort member for investing in yourselves and we are so excited for all to come! #innovateHER #techrotationprogram #techlearning #womenintech #womenintechnwa InnovateHER Technology Rotation Program Women+ in Technology of Northwest Arkansas Arkansas Office of Skills Development Apprenticely Tyson Foods eSCO Processing and Recycling Tiffany Benitez- CSM, SAFe, ITIL Sishir Reddy Kati Moore

I love this article from Built In Chicago, especially because I'm part of the 35% of women in tech. It's pretty amazing how I've managed to build a career as a web developer, thanks to Televerde. Their inclusive culture has been incredibly supportive, allowing me to grow and thrive in a career I truly love. I'm confident that no matter where life takes me, I'll be able to continue growing. Here are my top three tips for women in tech: 1. Keep Learning: Stay up-to-date with the latest tools, technologies, and trends in your field. Continuous learning keeps you competitive and adaptable in the ever-changing tech world. 2. Be Confident and Advocate for Yourself: Believe in yourself, speak up for your ideas, and stand up for yourself. Confidence and self-advocacy are key to making a real impact and seizing opportunities for growth in your tech career. 3. Build Strong Connections: Networking is essential for gaining insights, finding opportunities, and receiving support in the tech industry. Building relationships can help advance your career, find mentors, and stay connected with industry trends. https://lnkd.in/g5M9_Nc6 #TeleverdeEffect #WomenInTech #TechCareer #ContinuousLearning #ConfidentWomen #InclusiveCulture #CareerGrowth #NetworkingInTech #TechTrends #SelfAdvocacy #EmpoweredWomen

#GETInsights - Did you know 25.1% of the 329,559 currently employed software engineers in the US are women? And we don’t even have the statistics for trans and nonbinary people yet! Though the overall percentage of women with software engineering positions has been rising, women still only hold about a quarter of software engineering jobs. We’re highly eager to bridge the gender gap in tech on all levels and throughout the ecosystem. While it’s becoming easier for women and historically excluded talent to break into tech, there are still barriers when it comes to seeing them stay long term and advance into leadership and CEO level positions. We’re committed to curating intentional interventions designed to support women and historically excluded talent on all levels from funding to resource allocation, to networking opportunities and on-going support.

Happy International Women’s Day! 💪 Realign Consulting wishes to spotlight the women who are part of this great team! Here is Aurelie’s take on her experience in the world of tech and data; Q: How has your experience been being a woman in the field of data and tech? A: Being a woman working in tech nowadays is not as far-fetched of an idea compared to a couple of years back. This stems from my own experience comparing a few years ago being in more male-dominated classrooms in university to nowadays being empowered to navigate the complexities of coding, AI, and data analytics. I believe that women are capable and deserving of having equal chances in working in the tech industry and much has been done to inspire inclusion as we progress. Q: What has Realign Consulting done to make you feel empowered in your field of work? A: At Realign Consulting Service Ltd, I have always been encouraged to embrace challenges, take initiative, and voice out my opinions. My line of work partly consists of dealing with different people in numerous industries, which automatically paves the way to becoming more resilient and agile to changes and perspectives. I have been given the opportunity to learn how to deal with these different situations, and have always been supported in pushing my limit. #iwd2024 #inspiringleadership

Despite great strides made in tech over the last few years, new data from the Tech Talent Charter reveals huge diversity gaps persisting across the sector. The report found that: ➡️ Only 21% senior tech role holders are women ➡️ Only 14% senior tech role holders are from ethnic minority backgrounds ➡️ 3% of tech employees disclosed that they were neurodivergent, compared to 15-20% estimate for the UK as a whole As one of Tech Talent Charter’s 700 signatories who are committed to driving diversity in tech, we know how important it is that leading organisations work together to create a more inclusive tech sector. To support this, we submit data to the Tech Talent Charter to help shed light on the state of diversity in tech. Understanding the reality of the data is important, but action is essential. Leading employers have the responsibility to be engaging diverse technologists and create inclusive pathways into tech. That's why we founded Technology Academy, where 55% of our consultants are female and 18% are Black heritage. We’re proud to be supporting so many excellent diverse technologists into the space and we’re committed to continuing to work to close skills and diversity gaps in the space.

This #InternationalWomensDay we asked Trish Taylor MCIPS, Supply Chain Manager for Probrand, her thoughts on how the tech industry can better support women. Here's what she had to say: "It’s vital to look at how we encourage more women into tech roles in the first place. When talking to girls about a career in tech, the focus is often on pursuing technical roles as software engineers, coders and scientists... These are all incredible career paths, but they’re not the only available route. I would love to see people in non-technical roles – and those who don’t necessarily have a specific degree or qualification – share their stories and experiences. Events are a great way to do this, and I’d urge anyone organising a roundtable or conference to look at ways to include a more diverse mix of backgrounds, experiences and viewpoints." #IWD2024 #InternationalWomensDay2024 #womenintech #InspireInclusion
