A few words from the many that we’ve impacted.

I first came in contact with HerTechTrail when I started looking for where to learn a tech skill. I am super glad I did because I got to collaborate and make impact through the assignment and project groups created. I taught others what I knew, reached out to those I knew were better than me and it helped me learn. I got to put in practical work what I learnt from our weekly classes with the assignments given. I got my leadership skills tested because humans are never easy to manage but with patience, encouragement, shared responsibility and being firm we all got the best out of each other. I am proud to be a part of the HerTechTrail community.

Learning at HerTechTrail was exciting. I always knew I would get something new out of every class. The insights and support I got from my coaches and the community were the big boost I needed to fall in love with UI/UX design.

The Cohort 6 Frontend Web Dev Ladies were a source of strength to each other and so I gained a sisterhood at the academy. Also, tasking us to put our work on social media boosted my confidence as I had professionals commenting and encouraging me. I am indeed grateful for this opportunity and look forward to continuing my learning and growth at the academy to enhance my skills and compete effectively in the tech space.

I was without form and void in Tech until HerTechTrail came to my rescue and moulded me. I am not just in tech, I know what I am doing in Tech and I earn while at it. For the visibility, data support, Laptop support and all other benefits I have received from the Academy and how it has helped me, I recommend HERTECHTRAIL to any lady seeking to get into Tech.

I enrolled for the 4th cohort in July for the Digital Marketing track, and I can say that I had the best experience. Different aspects of digital marketing were dissected for easy assimilation, the classes were interactive and one of my favourite moments was after class assessment. HerTechTrail coaches do not joke with assessments which help every student to put the knowledge gained to solve real-life problems.
