Executive Summary

Ladies in Tech (LIT) Scholarship 2025 is a fully funded, three‑month tech scholarship for nine final‑year Indonesian female students, combining an online bootcamp, soft‑skills workshops, mentorship, and a guaranteed paid internship at CSG.

Kulkul leads the technical bootcamp delivery, turning selected students into job‑ready QA Automation Engineers, Full Stack Developers, and Service Desk Analysts through real‑world projects and close collaboration with LIT Network, Remote Skills Academy, and CSG.

Business Context

LIT Network runs flagship programmes to empower women with practical tech skills and better access to tech careers.

For 2025, LIT partnered with CSG, Kulkul Tech, and Remote Skills Academy to create a fully funded scholarship that not only trains final‑year students but also guarantees a three‑month paid internship at CSG for nine outstanding participants.

The Challenge

From Students to Professionals

The programme targets final‑year university students who often have theoretical knowledge but limited exposure to real‑world production environments, tools, and collaboration patterns. The core challenge is to transform academic skills into job‑ready capabilities in three specific roles—QA Automation, Full Stack Developer, and Service Desk Analyst—within just a three‑month bootcamp window.

High‑Stakes Internships

Because the scholarship includes a guaranteed paid internship at CSG for selected graduates, the training must align tightly with CSG’s expectations, tech stack, and work culture. This raises the bar for both technical depth and professional skills (English communication, presentation, collaboration), requiring an integrated approach across all partners.

The 2025 cohort needed a programme that did more than “teach tech”; it had to reliably produce entry‑level professionals who could plug into CSG teams with minimal ramp‑up.

Achieving this meant synchronising curriculum, mentoring, and assessments across multiple tracks and partners while maintaining high standards and supporting students through an intensive, full‑time experience.

Our Approach

Kulkul, LIT Network, Remote Skills Academy, and CSG co‑designed a three‑month journey that starts with rigorous selection (application, logic test, interview) and continues with structured technical training, soft‑skills workshops, and mentorship.

Participants follow track‑specific learning paths, complete real‑world projects, receive regular check‑ins, and culminate in a TECHTalk showcase that demonstrates their readiness for the guaranteed internship.

The Solution

Kulkul leads the technical bootcamp delivery by turning role profiles from CSG into concrete curricula for QA Automation, Full Stack, and Service Desk tracks, each with clear learning outcomes and portfolio‑ready projects.

Technical sessions are complemented by soft‑skills workshops (English communication and business presentation) and ongoing mentorship from LIT Network and RSA, creating a holistic environment where participants grow both as technologists and professionals.

Results & Impact

Clear Pathway to CSG

Guaranteed Paid Internships
Nine outstanding participants earn a guaranteed three‑month paid internship at CSG, turning the scholarship into a direct bridge from university to a global tech employer. This concrete outcome makes the programme highly attractive to aspiring female tech professionals and delivers measurable talent value to CSG.

Role‑Specific Job Readiness

Three Career Tracks Aligned
Graduates from the QA Automation, Full Stack Developer, and Service Desk Analyst tracks complete the bootcamp with skills, tools, and workflows that closely mirror what they will use inside CSG. By practising on realistic projects, they arrive at their internships with experience that feels familiar rather than theoretical.

Scaling Women in Tech

Flagship Women‑in‑Tech Programme
LIT Scholarship 2025 builds on earlier Girls in Tech/LIT programmes and solidifies a repeatable, partner‑driven model for accelerating women into high‑value tech roles. The combination of community reach (LIT), technical delivery (Kulkul), career support (RSA), and hiring commitment (CSG) offers a blueprint for future editions and similar collaborations.

Design Backward from Real Roles

The 2025 scholarship shows that the most effective tech talent programmes start from clearly defined roles and employer needs, then work backward to build curriculum, mentorship, and assessments around those outcomes.

By aligning every component of the programme with CSG’s expectations and LIT’s mission, the partnership creates both meaningful opportunities for women and reliable, role‑ready talent for industry.
