We support the future female programmer

The IT Challenge

There is currently a need for 30,000 Software Developers in Sweden. This number will grow to approximately 70,000 by 2022 unless special actions are taken. In the meantime, less than 20% of all job positions in the IT sector are held by women. In academia, the situation does not look any better – only 16% are female students at the KTH Computer Engineering.

According to LinkedIn, there are around 1,100 open tech job positions just in the Stockholm area.

How can we fill these gaps?
How can we encourage more women to join the IT fields and start tech education?
How can we help new graduates enter the IT job market?
SmartCoding brings the solution!
