About She Returns.

This initiative aims to increase women's workforce participation in the sector by addressing the challenges for female Corporate professionals, especially IT professionals to re-enter the IT & BPM Workforce, after a break in employment and help upskill them to take up job roles within the IT & BPM Sector. Additionally the program will also include females who are currently employed within other industries who aspire to move to the IT Industry as well as females who are underemployed (Employed not within their skills and potential). In an attempt to improve the female labor participation rate in the ICT- BPM industry, SLASSCOM’s WTech forum with the support of USAID CATALYZE Sri Lanka Private Sector Development (PSD) program initiated the first-ever “SheReturns” Returnship program for Women. The programme is also enriched by the partnership of 30+ companies in the IT & BPM sector who have pledged & committed to greater gender inclusion in the Knowledge and Innovation sector(IT & BPM)
