The number of women who enroll in non-conventional courses at the governmental National Institute for Professional Technical Training (Infotep) is increasing with each passing semester. Women used to make up just 20% of students, but this has now increased to over 55%.
Electrical maintenance is the program most in demand by women, according to a report from Infotep published by Listin Diario. Hundreds of women have enrolled in programs in electrical installations and maintenance, automobile mechanics and general mechanics, and over 3,200 women have graduated in non-traditional trades.
The training prepares women for starting their own businesses. However, Infotep stresses that thousands of women are also enrolled in the more traditional courses of hairdressing, dressmaking, nursing, baking and confectionery cooking, pharmacy, physical therapy and secretarial studies programs.
