YES project's mission is to offer one million trainings to create strong workforce for a future shaped by the Fourth Industrial Wave, characterized by technology orientation, innovation and initiative. We can already see, in our economy and others, that companies have begun extensively outsourcing key functions such as HR, marketing, accounting, etc. Who they are outsourcing to is a growing body of freelancers – individuals who have the skills, the energy, and the determination to provide services which companies previously had to handle in-house. This is where initiative is key. The freelancing marketplace is full of diverse and talented individuals who need to stay current and constantly be looking to learn and grow their skill toolkit. Training and education is a continuous process in order to be successful.
Bringing women and young girls into this digital marketplace will not only boost the size of the domestic economy, but increase competitiveness, address growing demand, and allow for more families to meet their education, health, and lifestyle needs.
