Sky (Sky Broadband<\/a>) has today launched a new paid training programme (‘Women in Home Service<\/em>‘) that will aim to offer career and development opportunities for up to 1,000 UK women interested in a becoming one of their engineers. At present, just 2% of the engineering workforce at Sky are female.<\/p>\n

The company says they’re committed to creating an inclusive culture and over the next two years they aim to increase representation of female engineers from 2% to 20%. Apparently the new programme will be supported by over \u00a32 million<\/strong> of investment and further details can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Chris Stylianou, Sky’s COO, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Engineering is an industry that has long seen underrepresentation of women. That is an issue for society and one that we at Sky have a responsibility to address. It is important that our Home Service engineers are as diverse and inclusive as the customers and communities they serve and that\u2019s why we\u2019re focussing our efforts on increasing the number of female engineers at Sky over the next two years.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
