Think DataHub helps young people in vulnerable situations use data and real guidance — not just good intentions — to decide their next step: keep studying, find a job, or start a business.
These are the real gaps Think DataHub aims to close, based on the national figures Educamás uses to design its support pathway. Each gap is met with a concrete program design decision.
That's why Think DataHub wasn't designed as a stand-alone course, but as a complete pathway: outreach, training, close support, and connection to real opportunities, hosted on Educamás Online so the cost per young person keeps dropping with every new generation.
Think DataHub combines vocational guidance, digital literacy, data analysis, and close support in a single journey, hosted and maintained on Educamás Online.
Early identification and profiling of young people in vulnerable situations, supported by a network of local partners.
Vocational guidance and life planning, digital literacy, logical thinking, programming, Excel, Google Sheets, SQL, and power skills.
Individual follow-up with teachers and co-facilitators to keep motivation up when life — work, family, distance — gets in the way.
Learning based on real data analysis projects, applied to decisions about their own educational and career path.
Continuing education, formal employment, or entrepreneurship — whichever path makes sense for each young person's stage in life, not a single one-size-fits-all goal.
Think DataHub program figures, measured and reconciled alongside the project's budget execution.
Every inclusion goal was set before the program began and reviewed at its close, including the one goal that wasn't fully met.
The one goal that didn't close as expected was for the migrant population: the target was 15% and 5.6% was reached. Most migrant applicants hadn't taken the Saber 11 exam — a requirement for some pathways into further education and employment — or had no computer at home. We're recording this rather than hiding it: it's the learning that's already shaping the digital resource kit and the differentiated outreach mechanisms for the program's next phase.
Think DataHub doesn't stand alone: it relies on public institutions, foundations, and social organizations that opened up outreach, referrals, and real opportunities in every territory.
The original plan covered Atlántico and Cundinamarca. Educamás Online made it possible to go much further without multiplying operations in every territory.
"Thank you for supporting us so much, for guiding us, and for helping us. Even though I don't know you in person, I can tell you're an amazing person."
"You were key to my process. Educamás' energy helped me focus on the things that really matter."
"Thank you for this project you created to help us, the young people."
A few weeks after starting, one of the participants — a young mother caring for her small child — was on the verge of dropping out. She was going through a demanding personal and family situation that left little room for classes.
The vocational support component gave her close follow-up: one-on-one sessions to recognize her abilities and reorder her priorities. She pursued her life plan, built her résumé in an employability workshop, and, weeks later, completed her training.
Months later she landed her first formal job. She didn't get into university on her first try — and she's already preparing to try again.
Think DataHub left behind reusable pedagogical and technological capacity at Educamás, ready for new generations of young people.
4 trainers and 3 co-facilitators trained in active pedagogy and project-based learning.
100% of the pathway and close to 175 learning resources are now available on Educamás Online.
Outreach, selection, and enrollment processes with over 400 automatic notifications to participants.
Before Cisco, Educamás was already training young people — but on a smaller and more costly scale. By digitizing the pathway on Educamás Online, the cost of reaching each young person dropped while coverage grew.
The difference isn't magic: it's that Educamás Online hosts 100% of the pathway and close to 175 learning resources — presentations, quizzes, workbooks, videos — that no longer need to be rebuilt for every new generation of young people. Each new group of young people costs less than the last, because the platform reuses what's already been built and validated.
Educamás is already adapting the components validated by Think DataHub to new territories and populations.
Think DataHub combines vocational guidance, data analysis, and close support so that every young person — regardless of their starting point — can reach their own decision about their future.
