Compensating for gender wage gap, coding bootcamp pays women 14% above market rate

In the Netherlands, just 18% of tech workers are female. Meanwhile, the gender wage gap across industries is 14%. Aiming to narrow both disparities, Femture is a new coding bootcamp focused solely on those who identify as women.

After spending four months learning frontend and backend development from female instructors, participants are guaranteed a job. They're also paid a competitive salary from the day the bootcamp begins. On top of that, Femture is adding a 14% bonus to highlight the gender wage gap and for trainees to invest in their tech career. The first camp starts next month, May 2022, with a second following in September.
