Chapter 4: Recommendations: Change needs a chance - Need for more professional gender-sensitive teaching, training and consultancy
Change needs a chance! The findings of the study strengthened the idea of providing support for the change agents in all transition phases in the first place. Those who may be able to induce a change, need more support in how to design and provide interventions! Thus, keeping the recommendations in mind, we propose to professionalize the training and consulting activities in the relevant phases of a girls` career planning. One important step towards this aim is to provide relevant inputs and resources for change agents. Thus, one of the project result is a collection of innovative, gender-sensitive training material which should be used in practice by the various change agents in their daily working environment.
In the last chapter of the study we take a look back at our initial hypothesis that given the three transition phases,
- profound and current information about the ICT labour market (anticipation of future development),
- a good match of female skills and ICT courses and studies and
- well-focused training in the empowerment of girls
will contribute to meet the challenge of moving more women into highly skilled, high paid IT jobs.
This section will describe in more detail the role of the change agents in the three phases of considering an ICT career, the career planning and findings about the agents` needs to improve their support or consultancy process along the ICT career path in the computing industry.The recommendations are described in the mode of learning objectives to give a concrete idea of the directions to follow. The chapters are:
Phase 1: Develop the idea of a technical ICT career path
Phase 2: Enrol on and study at computing courses and higher academic institutions
Phase 3: Graduate from university and enter the ICT world
