SheWorks!, a remote talent marketplace that empowers women through training for global employability and access to job opportunities, is expanding its global training program as a Facebook Marketing Partner. The expanded program seeks to transform the global workforce and hack gender unemployment by training and certifying thousands of women in technical and soft skills.

The first phase of the program will provide thousands of women the opportunity to set themselves apart in digital marketing by becoming Facebook Certified Digital Marketing Associates and obtaining SheWorks! Academy training on remote work readiness and soft skills such as time management, collaboration, empathy and effective communication. The training program will be available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Participants will also be eligible to further upskill in the second phase of the program with the opportunity to become a Facebook Digital Marketing Associate Trainer.  Once certified in Digital Marketing and after passing a training delivery and facilitation workshop, members of the Facebook Trainer Network can use their skills to help others build theirs. This model of women training and empowering women creates a potential multiplier effect that can positively impact the participants and their surrounding communities for the long-term.

As part of the program, SheWorks! is creating a Certified Talent Marketplace that will bring together thousands of female Facebook-certified professionals so that companies can hire, collaborate and manage them using the SheWorks! Platform, which provides transparency and accountability.
