Bakcell Supports the Launch of IT Training Courses for Women
A special scholarship program aimed at improving women's knowledge and skills in the field of IT continues with the support of Bakcell. As part of the program, specialized training in modern technologies, lasting for two months, has already started.
The Maya Hajiyeva IT Skills Scholarship Program is jointly organized by Women in Tech (WIT) and the Education Development Foundation (EDF) with the support of Bakcell. Successfully selected women, aged 15-45, will be employed after mastering UX/UI design, cybersecurity, digital marketing, and other specialties during the two-month training period.
"Our main goal in supporting the scholarship program is to raise awareness of the IT industry among Azerbaijani women and encourage them to build a career in this field in the future. Our company is always ready to support women who are interested in self-development," said Klaus Mueller, CEO of Bakcell.
The scholarship program, named after Maya Hajiyeva, Azerbaijan's first female mathematics scientist, was established in 2023. The program aims to support women who play a direct role in societal development, helping them gain economic freedom and realize their dreams through training in future professions.
Expanding education and employment opportunities for women is one of the main areas of Bakcell's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy. The company plans to support and further develop initiatives in this area. ®
