2023-04-06T09:39:11.261Z


It is required to be between 18 and 24 years old. When is there time to sign up?


One of the biggest

difficulties

that young people currently have is finding a job, mainly because they are asked 

to have work experience

, something that in most cases is impossible since it is precisely their first job.

It's like the old "tale of the good pipe": they don't get a job because they ask for experience and they don't have experience because they don't get a job.

But there is something else: the

lack of training

is also a problematic point when it comes to finding a job.

Specialists agree that academic training (courses, workshops, careers, bootcamps, etc.) is the fundamental tool for

breaking down the barriers

that prevent you from getting your first job.

Because in addition to

technical skills

, "know how" also provides greater self-confidence, which helps to lose fear of the unknown, of failing, of not knowing.

And if the training is in the technological sector, much better, since today they are the most sought after and

best paid

profiles in the labor market.

But, what happens when it is impossible to pay for a course, a workshop or a career?

It is important to know that there are free courses that can be done on the web.

But also, and with the aim of providing a solution to this problem, the

Push Foundation

offers

120 free scholarships in Full Stack Web Programming 

and registration has already opened.

This is the

"Push IT"

program , aimed at young people

between the ages of 18 and 24

who come from vulnerable sectors so that they can acquire tools that enhance their labor and technical skills and manage to insert themselves into a first formal job.

For two years, the Push Foundation has been implementing

IT training

programs together with national companies from the

Technological District of Buenos Aires

and international organizations, hand in hand with different recognized educational centers in the field of development and programming, under the

bootcamp

modality (program short intensive in which they teach specific skills).

What are the requirements to enroll in the Push scholarships?

  • Be between 18 and 24 years old.


  • Being in a situation of social and economic vulnerability.


  • Want to enter the workforce.


  • Have an interest in programming.


  • It is not necessary to have previous knowledge and/or technological resources at home.

The Foundation already has more than 150 young graduates and this year it renews its commitment with

120 new vacancies

.

"To sign up for this training, it is essential to show

interest in programming

, to have a great desire to learn and to assume the commitment to go through the challenges that the program unfolds," they explain from the Foundation that focuses on young people who come from vulnerable contexts, who most likely do not have access to this type of training course.

What are the scholarships offered by the Push Foundation to train in technology?

"This is a study scholarship with wide possibilities to open the way to

work in the technology industry

. It constitutes a first step in training that will later require continuing it," says

Mariana Frenkel

, director of Institutional Development at Push.

The proposal of this type of training (bootcamp) allows young people who wish to start their IT career to obtain specialized technical training in a few months for

trainee

positions as

full stack developers

.

"From the Foundation we cover a training in soft skills that is highly weighted when it comes to entering a job. That is, we provide them with technical training but which is designed in conjunction with training modules in labor skills and competencies so that they achieve their goal of employment from a humanly integral training perspective”, affirms Frenkel.

The group of young people will also have a professional volunteer team that will guide them and carry out personalized follow-up through

mentoring

, and after the training phase, they will be able to access an exclusive

job bank

for those who have completed the training, with the goal of applying for jobs in starting positions.
