WithYouWithMe Academy awarded QBE Foundation Local Grant to accelerate WithWomen initiative
PUBLISHED October 7, 2025
WithYouWithMe is proud to announce that the WYWM Academy, our not-for-profit arm, has been awarded a QBE Foundation Local Grant for 2025.
This funding will help expand WithWomen, our initiative dedicated to breaking barriers and creating new career pathways for women in technology. WithWomen provides free testing, digital skills training, and career support to help women uncover their potential and access meaningful, future-proof roles.
Through WYWM Academy, we work to solve underemployment and build new career pathways for overlooked communities including veterans, neurodivergent individuals, Indigenous peoples, youth, and refugees. WithWomen is a core part of this mission, tackling the gender gap in technology by equipping women with the skills employers need today.
“We know talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. This support from the QBE Foundation allows us to reach more women and accelerate our mission to create a more inclusive workforce.”
Cia Kouparitsas, Chief Customer Officer, WithYouWithMe
We’re honoured to be recognised alongside other outstanding organisations in this year’s program and thank QBE Foundation for their commitment to supporting initiatives that create stronger, more resilient communities.
Kickstart your tech career by joining WithWomen for free training and career support.
