Lesson Learned
Although the program sought to increase female participation in STEM fields, only 14% of all trainees in the PICG-supported courses were female. In order to recruit more women into traditionally male fields, future programming should seek to better understand the underlying causes of low female participation and target specific interventions to address those causes.
