Bridging the digital divide through learning and solidarity
Testimonials from our learners
Konexio is a story of human connection, social impact, and solidarity
Nora, attracted by the world of digital technology, joined the DigiStart program at the end of 2023. Convinced by this immersion, she decided to continue in this field and to double her efforts in her search for qualifying training courses. When the opportunity of a "Lovelace" scholarship offered by ADA TECH arose in January 2024, Nora and her PLIE Employment Advisor seized the opportunity without hesitation, quickly submitting her application based on her DigiStart training. Her commitment was rewarded with a grant of 8,000 euros. Currently immersed in this intensive training until October 2024, Nora is already preparing to start a one-year professionalization contract.

"I want to work in the digital sector and in IT maintenance. I also want to learn more about computer languages, I'm very curious.The DigitAll training course was necessary to get back to basics. During the course, I learned a lot about computer software like Word and PowerPoint. The course reinforced my desire to work in the digital sector.A big thank you to Konexio! The whole team is great and I really enjoyed learning with them."

"Initially, I didn't know what I wanted to do, but then I saw that Konexio was offering an introduction to programming languages. After several days of discovery, I wanted to go further. I liked the way the students helped each other. There was a great group spirit and a real learning dynamic that you can't find when studying by yourself. I also thought it was great that the trainer took the time to explain everything in depth. I was really able to have individual coaching on the notions I needed to go into more deeply." Today, Anfyati is looking for a company to join her work-study program at Digital College.

Testimonials from our partners
"I work with women who are very unfamiliar with using computers, so having this regular training is a real opportunity for us. Since the training takes place at Le Sillon, we can welcome their children in our children's area, allowing these women to continue their training and learn new skills that will be useful in their daily and professional lives. Konexio is a great outreach program that adds significant value to our support for people far from employment, who often hesitate to approach other organizations for fear of being judged."
