22. Pecafrom Project Conclusions knowledge based society - digital skills have become indispensable competencies We analyze the IT training aiming provide proficient digital skills for a group of ladies graduates in human, economic and medical sciences From a group of 25 participants who began the course, 23 fully completed the program

23. Pecafrom Project Conclusions Although the course schedule and requirements were very demanding, participants successfully completed the training and scored very well at the final exam Participants positively evaluated the course and its outcomes We expect the acquired competencies to have a very positive impact on the professional path oh the participants
