Hasta la fecha, 515 alumnos han completado los programas del IDSC, con una tasa de aprobados del 96,1 %, y 149 han conseguido un empleo directamente gracias a su formaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEl IDSC es un poderoso ejemplo de lo que las asociaciones p\u00fablico-privadas pueden lograr. Cuando los socios adecuados se unen, es decir, actores de la industria, el gobierno y las instituciones comunitarias, el impacto va m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de la capacitaci\u00f3n en habilidades. El resultado es la creaci\u00f3n de v\u00edas econ\u00f3micas reales para los j\u00f3venes y el establecimiento de bases para un crecimiento digital sostenible en las comunidades que m\u00e1s lo necesitan\u201d, afirm\u00f3 Ziaad Suleman, vicepresidente s\u00e9nior y director ejecutivo de Cassava Technologies en Sud\u00e1frica y Botsuana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lanzado para ofrecer capacitaci\u00f3n gratuita en habilidades digitales a j\u00f3venes desempleados y miembros de la comunidad, el IDSC ayuda a abordar brechas cr\u00edticas de habilidades al tiempo que apoya la participaci\u00f3n econ\u00f3mica en la provincia. Clave para su \u00e9xito han sido las asociaciones con Microsoft y Cisco Networking Academy, que permiten a los estudiantes acceder a certificaciones reconocidas internacionalmente y desarrollar habilidades pr\u00e1cticas en \u00e1reas como TI, redes, ciberseguridad, an\u00e1lisis de datos y tecnolog\u00edas en la nube. A trav\u00e9s de la plataforma Liquid 21CSkills, los estudiantes tienen acceso a m\u00e1s de 200 cursos digitales acreditados alineados con las necesidades actuales de la industria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A trav\u00e9s de iniciativas como el programa del Servicio de Empleo Juvenil (YES, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s) y el Programa de Emprendimiento Tecnol\u00f3gico Juvenil, el centro tambi\u00e9n prepara a los participantes para oportunidades de empleo y emprendimiento. Estos programas combinan formaci\u00f3n t\u00e9cnica, tutor\u00eda empresarial y acceso a redes de apoyo, ayudando as\u00ed a los j\u00f3venes innovadores a crear y hacer crecer empresas digitales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El IDSC de Mthatha es una parte de un panorama mucho m\u00e1s amplio, desde los laboratorios de STEM en la Provincia del Noroeste hasta los programas de emprendimiento que producen empresas emergentes que ya crean empleo y compiten en el escenario global. Para Liquid, as\u00ed es como se ve en la pr\u00e1ctica la construcci\u00f3n de un futuro conectado digitalmente. No se trata solo de infraestructura, sino de personas, capacitadas, empoderadas y listas para darle forma. Cada programa, cada certificaci\u00f3n y cada empresa emergente que se lanza es un paso hacia la reiteraci\u00f3n de nuestra misi\u00f3n de lograr una Sud\u00e1frica conectada digitalmente donde nadie se quede atr\u00e1s.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liquid Intelligent Technologies, a business of Cassava Technologies, a global technology leader, is celebrating the fifth anniversary of its Innovation and Digital Skills Centre (IDSC) in Mthatha.
