About Freshworks
Freshworks is a NASDAQ-listed, people-first AI service software provider, trusted by over 72,000 organizations worldwide. As part of its social impact initiatives, Freshworks STS Software Academy has been established to transform students—who have been unable to pursue a conventional college degree—into well-rounded professionals equipped for tech jobs in IT companies where skills are valued over certificates.
Many of these students come from single-parent households or rural parts of Tamil Nadu and begin the program with little to no computer knowledge or communication skills. Throughout the program, training is provided in coding, problem-solving, English, and life skills, enabling them to develop a strong foundation in web development so that careers as coders can be pursued.
At Freshworks, it is believed that meaningful partnerships are essential to realizing the vision of making technology accessible to all.
