We learned from existing work supporting Indigenous students and explored what programmes inspired by TechUP could look like in Brazilian contexts.

Aspiration isn't the barrier.
Access is.

From now until June, we’re running free 30 to 60 minute accredited Tech Careers CPD sessions with @infosys for schools. They’re for teachers who are expected to talk about “future skills” while the tech world quietly redraws itself every five minutes.
As one teacher put it, “Tech roles are for everyone and require more than just coding and maths skills” and the session is simply there to give staff a clearer, more up to date way of saying that, with ready to use resources to take straight back into the classroom.
Spaces are limited so hit the link to sign up: ow.ly/JM8K50YOK6b
