Svetlana's Story I got interested in coding at the university where I studied Math and got some basic programming skills. On graduation, I decided to switch to Economics&Finance and did my carrier as an Analyst. Over time, my priorities changed and I began to regret that I did not take programming seriously, though I always liked algorithms, schemes and structuring everything what I was doing. I thought it was too late to start with coding. But when I’ve come through SheCodes web I realized that it’s just the time when my dreams can come true.

🙋‍♀️ Svetlana's Motivation

I want to change my career path and switch to IT, as I dreamed about this for half of my life and almost lost my hope of ever achieving it. There were moments when I did not want to change stable work for the unknown, then it seemed that it was too late, but now I consider it as a chance that should not be missed (and better late than never)). I’m eager to explore this new field, dynamic, creative and highly prospective, that provides more freedom and creativity, much better work-life balance, and a possibility to combine job and hobby.

The SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women hold only 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less than men. In many developing countries, over 65% of women lack bank accounts, making it difficult to invest in their education.

The SheCodes Foundation is changing that. We provide women in developing countries with free coding education, equipping them with the skills to build a better future. In partnership with SheCodes, we offer training in product development, design, and management, empowering women to thrive in the tech industry.
