The HerFidelity Apprenticeship Program is designed to support young female apprentices by providing structured training, mentorship, and financial inclusion opportunities that prepare them for long-term independence.
The Apprenticeship Support Program equips women and young entrepreneurs with practical, hands-on skills and the support needed to build sustainable livelihoods.
Participants are matched with experienced crafts persons and businesses for structured, on-the-job training, complemented by basic business and financial literacy support. The program also helps address key barriers by providing guidance on tools, startup readiness, and income management.
