Pathways to Technology Careers for Women

 

Pathways to Technology Careers for Women is an outreach event that is taking place in order to encourage females to consider career pathways in the IT industry.

 

Many women in Ireland have never considered careers in IT. According to latest figures from the Central Statistics Office, less than 25% of STEM jobs in Ireland are filled by women. Less than half (46%) of those in employment were female in 2019. The vast majority (90.9%) of workers in Skilled Trades were male while most workers (79.3%) in Caring, Leisure and Other Services were female.

 

COVID-19 has further heightened the need for IT skilled workers and as demand for remote working and learning grows, growth in IT will follow. As many individuals struggle with job loss, providing short-term training programs can offset the unemployment gap and restore dislocated workers with jobs of the future.

 

The panelists will discuss their current positions and how they embarked on their career pathways and obstacles they overcame along the way. They will also outline the opportunities for females entering into the IT industry and show how to take that first step on Pathways to Technology Careers.
