Women Techsters Fellowship Program Description:
Title: Women Techsters Fellowship Program 2025
Application deadline: 31st January 2025
The Women Techsters Fellowship program is a FREE 1-year experiential learning technology upskilling program that empowers young girls and women, ages 16 to 40 years across Africa with global in-demand skills relevant to kickstart careers and businesses in technology. The program aims to bridge the digital and technology knowledge divide between men and women in the technology ecosystem and ensure equal access to technology opportunities for women and girls.
The Women Techsters Fellowship is a highly competitive program, admitting only the top 3% of applicants. It is a comprehensive 1-year program divided into two phases: the first 6 months focus on in-depth technical and soft skill training, while the last 6 months provide practical work experience, that includes opportunities for internships, volunteering, freelancing, entrepreneurship, and mentoring. This ensures that participants gain real-world experience and can apply their newly acquired skills in real-world scenarios.
