    Why they chose for technics

    What you can expect

    To make this exciting career change as smooth as possible, you will join our DevelopHER program. You and other women that have started our program will meet at least once a month for training and coaching. This full-day event covers important topics and trains skills like communication, resilience, and cooperation. There will also be laughter and moments to spar with your Women in Technics colleagues. This one- or two-year program is put together by experts focusing on your personal development.

    Your growth comes first

    We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to do what they enjoy. Many women are eager to take the leap into the technical sector, enjoy hands-on work, thrive in service-oriented roles, and seek dynamic careers. But how do you get there? Where do you start? What changes will this entail? Women in Technics provides answers to all these important questions.

    The stories of our talents

    Simone

    During her HBO studies, Simone realized it wasn’t the right fit for her. While working at Hornbach, she developed a keen interest in technology, particularly in electrical work. A quick learner and problem solver, she embraces challenges and thinks positively.

    Yvon

    During her search for a new challenge, she quickly came into contact with Women in Technics.
    The transition went smoothly, and in no time she had started her new job.
    “What I appreciate about the DevelopHer trainings is that everything can be discussed openly,” Yvon explains. “It makes working in a male-dominated industry so much more enjoyable.”

    Yris

    Despite her experience in the cycling industry, Yris chose to pursue a program through Women in Technics to obtain all the necessary certifications. A hands-on problem solver, Yris is highly creative and enjoys working with her hands. In her spare time, she runs a creative business where she designs bags made from recycled bicycle tires.

    Nanette

    Nanette has already made a significant career switch. Although she studied Integral Safety Studies, she had always wanted to drive large buses from a young age. Before taking this leap, she had already retrained as a coach driver. Nanette is eager to learn, goal-oriented, and fully ready for her next career switch at Stedin as a technician.

    Lotte

    After earning her Bachelor’s degree, Lotte started working as a delivery driver. This had nothing to do with her education, and she quickly realized she wanted to be physically active. Her next ambition was to obtain her C driver’s license, which she achieved. So what’s the next step after becoming a truck driver? We had to wait a bit longer to find the right opportunity for Lotte, but ultimately it worked out! This energetic, intelligent, and eager-to-learn 27-year-old is now working at Mammoet.
