We are West Africa's first finance and technology talent accelerator. Yielding Accomplished African Women aims at erecting and delivering the largest community of African female developers and financial analysts who are passionate about using STEM to revolutionize Africa and beyond. We use a 360 approach to professional development that inculcates young women with the necessary qualitative and quantitative skills necessary for the future of work. Our world class curriculum includes:

The minds behind the curriculum includes experts from Google, Capital One, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase & Co and Brown University. We then match them to experiential learning experiences in the form of jobs, internships, real-time projects, and externships. We have successfully implemented workshops + online programs to service over 500 young women in Africa. We have partnered with top rated and globally recognized partners such as Bank of America, Microsoft, Leti Arts, the Meltwater Foundation, US Embassy, Ghana Tech Summit and many more!

• Africa

• Women

The project started in Ghana and spread to the whole of Africa.

With the ongoing Covid-19, it was thoughtful for the organization to hold a virtual program that would get more girls into the tech and finance eco-system. Being for mostly African girls and free of charge, I believe this is the beginning of better and amazing things.

The project supports inclusion of women in tech and finance in achieving the goal of sustainable economic growth.
