Welcome to our page dedicated to fully-funded courses tailored for mothers. In today’s fast-paced world, we understand the challenges mothers face when considering career changes or returning to work after a career break. That’s why we are very excited to help spread the word about fully-funded training courses in Tech, providing an invaluable opportunity for mothers to acquire new skills, refresh their profiles, and confidently step back into the workforce.
By making this information available and accessible to mums at Between Mums, we aim to empower mothers and to contribute to closing the pay and gender gap. We strive to achieve this by raising awareness about the opportunities available for women in technology, a field traditionally dominated by men. Whether you’re seeking a career change, re-entering the job market after a break, or simply looking to enhance your skill set, these programmes are designed to support and empower mums on their professional journey. The following courses are provided by Netcom Training, the UK’s market leader in fully-funded Tech skills training.
