Special Training Opportunity for Young NEET* Women in Izmir in the Field of Data!

Special Training Opportunity for Young NEET* Women in Izmir in the Field of Data!

Let's start by clarifying what we mean by “NEET”: Young people who are “Not in Education, Employment, or Training” (NEET) are, like in many places around the world, living more vulnerable lives from today to tomorrow in Turkey as well, distanced from these two major windows of opportunity in economic and societal life.

This situation is much more acute for young women. According to 2022 labor force data from TURKSTAT, the population aged 18-29 in Turkey is just over 14.5 million. Among young males in this age range, the NEET rate is 19%, whereas it’s 45.1% for young females. This means, almost one in every two young women in our country is not engaged in education or employment.

Why Data Entry Personnel?

With the inevitable proliferation of information technologies in every aspect of life, there has been a significant increase in job and employment opportunities at various levels in the field of data management. Especially for those who wish to leverage these growing opportunities in the data management sector of the IT industry while taking the first steps in their careers, institutions with intense data management needs such as healthcare and educational institutions, accommodation facilities stand out.
