QualityWorks Joins Movement to Inspire Young Caribbean Women in Tech

Los Angeles, CA, July 28, 2018 --(PR.com)-- On Saturday, July 21, 2018, QualityWorks Consulting Group in Kingston, Jamaica, sponsored the Youth Can Do It (YCDI) Women in I.T Mentorship Meetup. This initiative is apart of a larger mentorship program, which is geared towards encouraging young Jamaican women to pursue careers in the usually male-dominated field of I.T.

As one of the very few software companies that is 100% woman owned and led, QualityWorks, continues to champion initiatives such as the YCDI program which supports Women in Tech, particularly in the Caribbean. With more than 60% of total employees being female, QualityWorks remains committed to inspiring and nurturing the next generation of female tech leaders.

Ranked 2nd for the most mentors in the program, QualityWorks consultants have been investing their personal time and resources ever since the program’s conception. This partnership with the Women in Tech is not the first of its kind though, as the company has collaborated with similar programs in the US, namely, Women’s Voices in Tech.

CEO, Stacy Kirk shared "QualityWorks is always looking for ways to give back to our community. Offering encouragement and guidance to women is particularly close to my heart, given our gross underrepresentation in the computer discipline."

The Mentorship Meet Ups so far have featured training sessions on software development, UI/UX design, personal development and provided an open space for knowledge sharing.
