With the goal of bridging the gap between academic training and the demands of the labor market, PedidosYa Dominican Republic and the Chamber of Deputies have formalized an institutional cooperation agreement. This alliance focuses on strengthening the “PeYant\u00edas STEM” program, an initiative designed to provide students and graduates of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) degrees with the opportunity to gain professional experience in a real corporate environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The agreement, promoted by the Permanent Commission of Information and Communication Technology of the Chamber of Deputies, seeks to eliminate the common obstacle faced by young people upon graduation: the lack of prior work experience. By participating in this program, students will be able to integrate into the dynamics of a leading technology company in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nWe want to break the vicious cycle where experience is required to get a first job. With PeYant\u00edas STEM, we aim for our young people to graduate from university not just with a degree, but with a real professional track record that opens doors to career success.<\/p>\nVicente S\u00e1nchez Henr\u00edquez, President of the Standing Commission on Information and Communication Technology.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Fostering young talent in the digital economy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Iv\u00e1n Valdez, managing director of PedidosYa in the country, highlighted that this commitment reaffirms the company’s investment in local talent. The platform, which has a wide network of merchants and delivery partners nationwide, positions itself as an ideal setting for future technology professionals to put their knowledge into practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
- Effective connection:<\/strong> The program links universities with the private sector to respond to the demands of the digital economy.<\/li>\n
- Professional development:<\/strong> Participants will have access to mentorship and practical training within a multinational structure.<\/li>\n
- National boost:<\/strong> The initiative aligns with Law No. 89-25, which promotes scientific and technological development in the Dominican Republic.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
The PeYant\u00edas STEM program acts as a vital bridge, facilitating students’ transition into the workforce and contributing to ensuring the country’s human capital is better prepared for current technological challenges. The Permanent Technology Commission will continue working on disseminating these opportunities to ensure that young Dominican talent has access to high-level growth platforms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
