Equal career development opportunities for women in the STEM field
Despite all efforts, the fact is that there is still an underrepresentation of women and a lack of equal opportunities. This especially applies to women from the STEM sector: The number of women in this sector is already very low, but it even decreases during the career path more than in any other sector.
At this point, the project “Equal career development opportunities for women in the STEM field“ comes into effect. The project aims at supporting women who are interested in occupational advancement. In order to do this, qualitative and quantitative methods are unified whereby current success and restraint factors are investigated. The core of the project is the so-called “Competence Development Recommender (CDR)“, a free online-tool in which the users can link their electronic curriculum. As a result, they receive comparables and recommendations of improvement of their achievements and qualifications gained so far, which creates a realistic evaluation of the own curriculum in order to encourage the mentioned assurance according of the own professional identity. Thereby, the career management of the users are supported.
