Youth Power Germany e.V.

Have you seen it? We have exchanged the video on the project page! In our new project video, Andres doesn't just speak for himself. Many other young people are already eagerly waiting for an IT training position at Platzi.
Here it is:

In Germany it is hard to imagine that with 25 euros a month you can give someone a real chance for the future. This is possible in Colombia. We make it possible together!
Platzi (https://platzi.com/ ) is an online school that covers learning areas that prepare people for promising careers such as Digital Marketing, Cyber Security, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Web Development, English and Leadership.

According to our partner in Medellin, experience shows that students are hired by companies in Colombia 6 months before their certification (which is after 6 months of training on Platzi) and earn around €200. This is particularly important in the case of our young people in order to maintain motivation. After one year, they receive €400 monthly and can then continue to earn salaries up to €2,000 through junior positions (€800) and senior positions (€1,210), or a maximum of €3,000 in manager positions with around 10 years of experience and academic training. Some are also hired by American companies and may have even better financial prospects.

This is a huge opportunity to escape a looming vicious cycle of poverty.
