Skilling the World for AI

Wawiwa and CEDEM Partner to Reskill Porto Alegre, Brazil, to Tech

On July 9th, 2025, Wawiwa Tech signed a new partnership agreement with CEDEM, a business consulting and education provider, in Porto Alegre, Brazil, to reskill individuals with no prior background to Data Analysis, Digital Marketing, Full-Stack, and Frontend Development. This collaboration marks Wawiwa’s third partnership in Brazil, further expanding our mission to Reskill the World to Tech.

Partnership Signing Ceremony

Brazil’s growing tech sector is full of opportunity. While the country’s average annual salary stands at $8000 USD, tech professionals often earn more than double that amount.

Wawiwa Tech, a global leader in reskilling and upskilling people to tech and business jobs in high demand, offers its local partners, like CEDEM, career-oriented tech training programs that incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology and readiness.

CEDEM has been a key player in business education and consultancy since 1994, helping companies, especially family businesses, implement effective governance and boost performance.

Volnei Garcia, Director of CEDEM, said:

“This partnership is set for success as it brings together CEDEM’s deep roots in business education with Wawiwa’s global expertise in tech reskilling. Together, we’re creating real opportunities for people to enter high-demand tech careers and for companies to access skilled talent.”

Eran Lasser, Founder and CEO of Wawiwa Tech, said:

“Recognizing Brazil’s potential, we’re partnering with CEDEM to bring several of our tech reskilling programs to train Data Analysts, Digital Marketing Specialists, Full-Stack and Frontend Developers. These programs are designed for individuals with no experience and prepare learners to become job-ready in just 6-9 months.”
