Cuti and INEFOP signed last March 19th the second agreement of the b_IT Program that ensures the continuity of the b_IT 2018 Generation and the launch of 1000 scholarships for the new 2019 Generation.
b_IT is a 2-year 100% online training program in Information Technology aimed at people over 18 years of age with a 4th year of high school or equivalent passed throughout the country.
The program aims to integrate more women into the IT industry, people who are unemployed or who want to retrain, people with disabilities, and other groups with difficulties in accessing employment; therefore, these sectors will be given greater consideration when awarding scholarships.
From the group of applicants resulting from the introductory course, the following weightings will be made to reach the group of 1000 scholarship holders of the 2019 Generation.
- 50% female and 50% male
- 50% Montevideo and 50% inland
- 8% of Afro-descendants
- 10% of people with disabilities
The deadline for applications is extended from April 19 (original date) to April 30, 2019 at 5pm.
