TechTalent Academy is part of our drive to form partnerships and ultimately hire diverse talent…Capgemini see potential in all people and our recruitment process enables passion and potential to come out as part of the Strengths-based selection process… TechTalent Academy’s curriculum means those completing the courses are equipped to hit the ground running technically in a technology consulting firm like ours and be placed on to billable work soon after joining.

UST has successfully transformed the lives of under-represented communities across different geographies with our ‘Step IT Up’ program. Our work with WMCA and Tech Talent Academy paves the way to expand on this initiative across the UK. The local talent we are recruiting brings with them a range of expertise in the data, low code, and RegTech space – and will ultimately enhance our offering to customers.”

We are delighted to be partnering with TechTalent Academy. We have always believed that a diverse workforce is a more effective defense. It is also vital in combating the skills gap in the industry that we provide the framework for more groups to learn the skills and enter the industry. To do that, skills development programmes have to be designed to be accessible and inclusive.
