Unlike traditional DEI initiatives, we specialise in upskilling and placement areas. At UP School, we believe that empowering women in tech goes beyond policies and audits; it's about practical solutions and meaningful impact.
UP School Diversity Partnership aims to help companies attract, engage, and retain women talent in technology. By working with us, companies can diversify their workforce, tap into a skilled pool of female professionals, and promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within their organisation.
