A WORD FROM THE PRESIDENT

2011 will be remembered as a crucial year within the evolution of Passerelles numriques. From a sound and fully-grown structure in Cambodia and 2 outcropping young projects with a family-run and pioneering approach, we have rapidly built a multinational structure. 3 Training and education centers in 3 different countries, about 250 youths who enter the labor market every year and coordination more and more essential in our headquarters in Paris: that is what we achieved in 2011.

In Paris, we reorganized the practices of coordination trying to find the perfect balance between the need of a decision process that reflects the operations exigencies and of an efficient controlling system, without losing sight of the mission and the values of Passerelles numriques. In 2011 we adopted a new logo and a new graphic chart to spread the same image in all the countries where we operate. This shows our will to share information and experiences and to capitalize on our know-how to develop a better synergy among our centers. This is our responsibility toward our donors and their generosity.

THE CHALLENGES OF THE FUTURE A YEAR OF CONSOLIDATION

There is still a lot to achieve at Passerelles numriques: we need to learn how to grow. Operations on the field have been consolidated. In Vietnam, the second Batch, composed of 60 students (they were 30 in 2010), enrolled at our center in Da Nang in September. In the same period, we have obtained from the local authorities the permission to operate and our legitimacy in the country. That means that now we can hire our own staff and keep the accounts. Our agreement with our executive partner East Meets West (EMW) is changing: the services contract with EMW will end in the next months, even though we will still collaborate with them during the selection process. We installed in Vietnam the model that characterizes all PNs projects: we hired a Company relations manager, we developed the technical training and the educational program, and we provided the necessary equipment. We strengthened the links with the University of Da Nang that provided us with new classes. Our team in the Philippines has concentrated its efforts in developing new relations with companies in order to launch the dual system training for Batch 2012 that took place during the last 3 semesters of the training. The internship has proved efficient as most of the students received a job offer before the end of their studies. We consolidated the selection process in the Visayas region and hired a Selection Manager. In collaboration with the University of San Carlos, we designed the new curriculum Software development. In Cambodia, we focused on the updating of the curriculum Web Programming that, in 2011, welcomed twice the number of students compared to 2010. An expert has been hired in order to collect our technical needs and define the renewal program in terms of technical assets in a long-term perspective. A special effort has been made to improve our pedagogical approach, and especially Business life classes. As for the fundraising, a new specialist has been working on the creation of a scholarship founded by local companies and on the project Solidarity Act that allows PNs alumni to support the organization and the younger generations. Benot Genuini Chairman of the Board Passerelles numriques A warm thank you to the staff, the volunteers, the ambassadors, the sponsors and the donors who help us to achieve our objectives and make Passerelles numriques perpetual. At the same time, we must not yield to the pressure of being efficient and risk going too fast. Every day we need to remember the core of our mission, the educational project, or better the human one that makes us engage for the success of our students. In order to ensure high-quality training, we will continue to work on this process of professionalization. Our managers are developing some new strict HR and Finance procedures to share with all the centers. In spite of our dimensions, we need to set up an agile organization in terms of decision-making, reactivity and innovation.

PNS CONSOLIDATION
Under the auspices of its President, Mr. Benot Gnuini, in 2011 Passerelles numriques has been involving in a continuous process of consolidation and strengthening of the organization. The Board welcomed a new member: Mrs. Sixtine Darr. After volunteering for PN as a Finance Responsible, she became administrator and paymaster. In order to delve further into the ways and the direction of PNs evolution, the Board created a Strategy Cluster. Its members, who regularly meet, have already addressed the following issues: goals and means to reach the financial autonomy of PNs projects in the field. conditions and outcomes of wider logistic autonomy of the projects. best practices resulting in the skills sharing process that has been set up after the opening of the centers in Vietnam and in the Philippines.

To strongly affirm our willingness to gather under the same flag and the same colors for all PNs projects, a new graphic look and a new logo have been designed in 2011. It is crucial to show a single global image, as we operate everywhere with the same mission, the same professional passion. The operations teams are also highly involved in this makeover process. In July 2011, the first inter-projects seminar took place in Cambodia. At this occasion, the different teams had the opportunity of exploring the synergies amongst the projects and of enhancing the more rare skills to put them at the service of all actors. The aim is to evolve from a simple team network to a truly global team. To attain this goal, during the seminar some key-achievements for 2011/2012 have been established: Writing a common Educational Plan. Strengthening the technical and pedagogical competences of the teaching body. Sharing the best practices for the Selection process. Within the framework of the shared skills volunteering, organizing short missions across all the sites. Improving the Human resources policy. Improving the Internal & External Communication. Increasing the efforts of auto-funding for the field. Regular follow-up of cash flow from continuing operations. Capitalization of competences in all domains.

How to share skills and best practices at best is one of the most important imperatives in order to improve - first - the quality and the sustainability of the centers and later PNs ability to launch new projects. With the support of the team specialized in Knowledge Management from our new partner Devoteam, PN developed and implemented an ambitious and pragmatic action plan. The first concrete and measurable results were: the better quality of the training in Cambodia thanks to: a. the capitalization and maintenance of the training departments achievements through the reordering of all data and the ongoing updating of the trainings content; b. in terms of human resources, an integration process aiming at ensuring an adequate introduction training for the teachers as well as the development of trainers communities. the collaboration between the projects and the headquarters in terms of communications, budget, human resources, etc

THE FONDAMENTALS

KEY DATES AND FIGURES

2005
Opening of Passerelles numriques first training center in Phnom-Penh, Cambodia with the first batch of 25 students.

BACKGROUND
In Cambodia, a society still traumatized by 30 years of civil war and the Khmer Rouge tragedy, 35% of the population still live on less than $1,25 per day. More than half of the population is younger than 21 years old. School and university infrastructures are still inadequate and out of the 300.000 children born each year only 20.000 of them reach a university level of study. In the Philippines the gap between the incomes of the rich and the poor is one of the most significant in the world. In major cities, modern shopping malls are just a few meters away from slums, where millions of families struggle to survive in miserable conditions. In Vietnam populations from the countryside, the outskirts of big cities and ethnic minorities from the highlands are all living in deep poverty. They are therefore also excluded from the higher education system. In these countries, as in other places in the world, millions of youths eager to learn do not have the resources nor the opportunity to study. They are therefore unfortunately unable to break out of the poverty cycle.

2007
20 students graduated in Cambodia (System & Network Administration training program).

2008
Launching of a new training program, Data Management Operator (6 months), in partnership with Digital Divide Data (DDD).

2009
Launching of a new program in Cebu, Philippines, with a first batch of 25 students. 250 students in Cambodia.

2010
Launching of a new program in Danang, Vietnam, with a first batch of 30 students. 69 students in the Philippines.

OUR VISION
Passerelles numriques envisions a world where through access to education and employment, the most underprivileged can use their talent to reach a better future. We strive to enable the largest number of young people in a precarious situation to access training leading to a qualified job in the Information Technologies sector.

OBJECTIVES & BENEFICIARIES

Our ambition is to help at least 90% of the students directly enrolled in our programs to find a qualified job and ultimately end the cycle of poverty for themselves as well as for their families. All underprivileged young adults capable to keep up with our programs are eligible. We make a special effort to include at least 50% of young women, and beyond priority is given to the poorest boys or girls. The ratio of girls is always limited to two

thirds of each batch.

PRINCIPLES OF ACTION
FAIR AND RIGOROUS SELECTION PROFESSIONALISM. A requirement for the successful integration of students in the business world. SPIRIT OF PARTNERSHIP. We systematically seek to identify actors and projects with whom we can work and leverage the expertise and know-how of each one. PRAGMATISM & EFFECTIVENESS. We have a demand for results which we measure through social impact indicators. We expect from our collaborators to be productive and pragmatic. GENERAL TRAINING IN BUSINESS SKILLS INTEGRITY & EQUITY. We act with a permanent concern for equity between students as well as between colleagues, and a demand for integrity.

PNS 5 PILLARS
Concentrating on the poorest zones in the large area surrounding each training center, our selection process follows four stages: information and awareness-raising sessions to explain the IT sector, its opportunities and to introduce our programs; written exams in logic, mathematics and English to check the applicants capacities; individual interviews to assess each applicants motivation, maturity and mindset; social investigations to evaluate the familys resources and validate their eligibility: only the most underprivileged are admitted.

This differentiating component of our training programs is highly appreciated by recruiting companies. Specifically we cover: learning the English language; a professional life training nurturing business skills based on general culture, business world knowledge and behavioral skills; higher-level soft skills such as open-mindedness, autonomy, adaptation and initiative.

OUR VALUES
SOLID TECHNICAL AND PRACTICAL TRAINING We want to transmit the values we believe in to our students: TRUST. Trust enables us to work together. We trust the capacity of our students to build themselves; they trust our capacity to help them in this process. SOCIAL AND EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT The success of these resourceless young people from rural origins depends on us providing RESPONSABILITY & SOLIDARITY. As adults, we feel interdependent with precarious young people, and responsible to give them an opportunity to succeed. them with both: material support: accommodation in boarding homes, equipment, financial support, medical care and health insurance; moral and educational support: follow-up and counseling throughout their studies. Focusing on employability, PNs training is constantly updated in order to match business needs; it aims at being practical, targeted and certified.

We also develop a pedagogy centered on the values of trust, responsibility and solidarity. RESPECT. Our projects are implemented with respect and understanding towards everyone involved: students as well as donors, business partners, staff and volunteers. GUIDANCE TO EMPLOYMENT Students are guided through both their internships and job search by our Companies OfDEMAND. We have for our students, as well as for the way we conduct our programs, a high demand for quality, professionalism and achievements. fice department. This department is closely supported by our alumni network and by Passerelles numriques partners.

HUMAN RESOURCES
Passerelles numriques gathers some passionate, generous and proactive professionals. PN promotes a Human Resources policy that supports knowledge sharing. EMPLOYEES. In France the average payment for the team has been 10.925 net/month. These employees all already have either solid field or volunteering experience. As a rough guide, a Khmer teacher is paid $250 to $580/month, the other staff between $200 to $630/month. INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY VOLUNTEERS (VSI). This is the preferential status offered to the expats who work at the service of PNs projects. They commit in management or support missions. Their basic allowance is $800/month. The amount increases progressively according to the responsibility level. VOLUNTEERS. About 15 in France in 2011, working parttime or full-time, volunteers supported PN in several fields, such as HR, Communications & Fundraising and Finance. We also welcomed some short-mission volunteers on the field: 2 people in Cambodia, 4 in the Philippines, and 8 in Vietnam. INTERNS. Welcoming students as interns is for PN the opportunity to raise awareness among youths of different origins and to sensitize them to our mission. In 2011, 4 interns joined the staff of PN in Phnom Penh: Brunehilde Carniel-Perrin (Mines de Douai), Christophe Gardella, Thomas Graffanino, and Wuillaume Dalle, from the Polytechnic University of France. They all collaborated with the Selection department.

SHARED SKILLS SPONSORSHIP EMPLOYEES Within this special status, the employee works for PN but is paid by his/her company (pro bono). Our partner Accenture offers 1 to 3-6-month missions every year. Passerelles numriques proposes also some customized projects for those who asked for sabbatical leave: with the support of their company, they spend either a part of or their entire annual leave working for PN. Passerelles numriques aims at training and backing its staff all along their career path . In 2011, Sandrine Nathan (Consultant for Accenture France) spent 8 months in Phnom Penh working on local fundraising. PNs center in the Philippines welcomed 2 employees of Accenture Cebu: Edward Galan, who conducted a market analysis to explore the job perspectives for PNs students, and Eduardo Sapuguay, who worked on the update of the training and curricula.

SOLIDARITY LEAVE The Solidarity leave is a project that allows the employees working for PNs partners to spend their leave within Passerelles numriques. Usually their missions last 2 weeks and all the travel expenses are covered by their company. In 2011 our partners Altedia, Accenture, Econocom, ECS, Osiatis, and Steria participated actively in the project. Since 2005, 180 employees have already joined PN to share their skills and competences. PN capitalizes their contribution in several fields: IT, languages, management, pedagogy, and communications.

More than half of the population is under 21 years old: they are moving to the cities to seek jobs. School and university infrastructures are still inadequate and out of the 300.000 children born each year only 20.000 of them reach a university level of study. Despite Cambodias Ministry of Educations efforts towards primary schools, many institutes lack equipment, textbooks, laboratories and buildings. While officially free, education - especially secondary and higher education - is not accessible to the most underprivileged families. In 2005, Passerelles numriques created its first school in Phnom Penh to help disadvantaged students access a high-level education and to find qualified employment.

Since 2005, 607 students have graduated from PNs Cambodia center: Batch 358 students completed a 2-year training program (IT technician) : 97% of graduates found skilled employment within 2 months. Their average starting salary is $149 per month. Within 2 years they earn an average salary of $300 per month. They give a part of their salary to their family, enabling younger brothers and sisters to go to school and study. Once graduated in just over 2 years these youths earn the equivalent of the sum invested in their studies at PN.

249 students attended a 6-month training and have been hired later by Digital Divide Data (DDD).

Today, I have more hopes for my future and every day I repeat myself Yes, I can do it!. After the internship that PN Cambodia helped me to find, I found a good job in a bank. With my salary I can support my sisters studies and my family. One day, when I will be older, I would like to share my technical knowledge with young unprivileged people and help them to have a better future. That is what happened to me.

SELECTION
18 Cambodia provinces in which the selection process took place in 2011.

In 2011, the selection team of Passerelles numriques Cambodia targeted 18 (out of 24) provinces all over the country. The rigorous process is composed by 4 different phases:

18 provinces 40 exams centers 60 information sessions 7200students attended the information sessions 2200 written exams 992 motivation interviews

INFORMATION

SESSIONS.

These

sessions

aimed at informing high-school students about the training and the scholarship offered by PN Cambodia - take place in high-schools and/or in the centers of local and international NGOs-partners. In 2011, on the basis of financial criteria, candidates have been pre-selected by them.

WRITTEN EXAMS. To test candidates skills in English, Math & Logics. All staff is involved in this phase: by their presence, they guarantee the fairness of the exam.

632 social investigations 200 students enrolled

MOTIVATION INTERVIEWS. These interviews are crucial not only to verify the motivation of the candidates, but also to test their willing to live far away from their home and to attend the classes regularly for 2 years. Only qualified staff members take part into this phase of the selection process. In 2011 the training for the interviewers was organized by PN in collaboration with HR.inc, a company specialized in Human Resources policies.

SOCIAL INVESTIGATIONS. Selection team visits the candidates families to verify that their situation matches PNs financial criteria. They gather information concerning the number of family members, the parents job if they work and salary, any debts, the goods they own, etc.

Mr. THAINA SEANG, SELECTION MANAGER The selection process is quite complex and definitely one of the most challenging phases of Passerelles numriquess job. The most difficult part for selection team is the social investigations: every year we have to meet about 600 families on average in 4 months. They often live in landlocked villages, very difficult to reach by public transports. We leave Phnom Penh by motorbike and we often face rain and mud, especially during the rainy season when racetracks are pretty impracticable. In spite of these difficulties, staff works with high motivation to achieve our goal in time.

PN strongly believes in the potential of the role of women to promote the development of the country. In 2011, PN Cambodia enrolled 49 females out of 100 new students.

TRAINING
ORIENTATION WEEK. After their 3 first months of training, students of Batch 2013 had to choose the curriculum they preferred between SNA (Systems and Network Administrator) and WEP (Web Programming). To help them with this difficult choice, in December 2011 PN Cambodia organized for the first time the Orientation Week. This is a series of workshops during which trainers from both SNA and WEP explained to students, through practical exercises and demonstrations, the training they will receive in each program and the different career opportunities they will have at the end of their studies. Currently, 50 students from Batch 2013 are attending the SNA curriculum and 50 students the WEP. STRENGTHENING THE TEAM. In 2011 the Training Department welcomed 3 new volunteers, Mr. Grgoire Thiriar (Pedagogy Expert), Ms. Melissa Ayers (WEP Training Expert) and Mr. Stephane Pointu (IT expert). These technical experts are supporting the team by updating the curricula in order to make sure that the training proposed by PN meets the market needs. They also bring with us professional expertise, methods and skills which are transferred to our trainers. MR. STEPHANE POINTU, IT EXPERT The main objective of my mission is to make sure that what we teach the SNA students is in perfect adequacy with the job market, the final aim being to have students that are operational when they arrive in the companies. The understanding of the IT market in Cambodia as well as a good knowledge of technology trends are crucial points to achieve this objective. Currently, we are creating a whole new training on Information Security, which has now been identified as a need from the market. We are very proud of this program as, for instance, we are the first school in Cambodia working on this subject.

MS. MARYLINE CHABANIS, TRAINING MANAGER Some of students already have a preference for one curriculum or the other. The problem is that most of the time their choices are not based on real knowledge of the courses but on advice they heard from their friends or siblings that attended our school previously. We needed to offer to students the possibility to make a more informed choice. That is why we decided to organize this special week.

PEDAGOGY. The specificity of training in PN Cambodia is a shift from the traditional approach (focused on learning knowledge) to a competency-based approach (focused on the development of practical skills) of teaching. Under the supervision of the pedagogy expert, Mr. Gregoire Thiriar, PN Cambodia teachers have thus been working hard at reviewing their objectives, methods of teaching and evaluation processes. They encourage and stimulate the students to develop fundamental and complex skills that will be instrumental for their future career and personal development such as self-learning and problem-solving. This effort has been very productive in the Business Life and English departments, and it will continue in 2012 in the IT department. DMO (DATA MANAGEMENT OPERATOR). A SUCCESSFUL PARTNERSHIP WITH DDD Founded in 2001, Digital Divide Data (DDD) identifies and recruits motivated, disadvantaged youth who would not otherwise have access to good jobs or higher education. They train and employ them at a fair wage, while offering them scholarships to attend university. DDD alumni go on to high-skilled positions in which they earn more than four times the average regional wage. This enables them to break the cycle of poverty that traps their families; they are able to send family members to school and raise their household's standard of living. PN selects and trains up to 100 students a year within the framework of its partnership with DDD: curriculum DMO (Data Manager Operator), 6-month training.

STUDENTS LIFE

A REINFORCED TEAM. In order to guarantee to students the continuous support of Students Life team, in November 2011 a new staff member joined Passerelles numriques Cambodia: Mr. Dane Chen, Educator, who works in the center in the evenings and during the week-ends. Ms. Julie Gasser, Education Manager, and her team meet students class by class once a week: these meetings are an opportunity for students to discuss their scholastic or personal problems with the educators and try to find a solution together. HEALTH. PN Cambodia cares about the health conditions of its students: they access for free vaccination campaigns, periodical eyes-examinations, check up (Hamap Sant), and hospitalization. Within the framework of a campaign started in 2010, in 2011 all new students received vaccinations for hepatitis B and pertussis. ACCOMODATION. 90% of PN Cambodia students come from the countryside: during their 1st year they live in 4 dormitories situated in the same block of PNs School. During the 2nd year students pay directly for their accommodation using PN allowance. DIET. PN Cambodia dining hall offers to students balanced and low-cost meals. Students Life Department conducts an audit every month to verify that hygiene and good nutrition standards are respected. TRANSPORT. On arrival a bike and a helmet are provided to students so they can easily reach their internship or workplace. Students also take part in a road safety" session during which they learn general road rules and how to read a map. EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES. Besides training, PN Cambodia offers its students several recreational activities. On Wednesdays students go the stadium to play football or volleyball or do aerobics. Aerobics classes are also available every afternoon at PN Cambodias School. Some students also take some painting class when others prefer watch a movie on Fridays. Once a month, PN Cambodia organizes a conference on topics of interest for the young generation such as children safety, drug issues, HIV/AIDS, global warming, human traffic, etc SNA & WEP - 2nd year $55 a month, used as follows: MS. VIDA CHAN, EDUCATION OFFICER My professional career started at PN Cambodia a few years ago, when the official name was still CIST. At the time, after graduating from the Institute of Foreign Languages in Phnom Penh, I worked as an English teacher. In 2009 I won a scholarship and moved to France where I have been attending an Education Master at the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis for about 2 years. Back to Cambodia in 2011, I didnt forget the links with Passerelles numriques. In August of the same year my collaboration with PN started again: this time I work as an Education officer. This is a very interesting position that allows me to apply in the real life all the things I learnt Food, clothes, etc during my stay in France. Sometimes it is hard to work with young people: during the first months, we repeat our rules again and again and again. Students could be very undisciplined! However, we are happy to see their results and progress: for them we are not just educators, but more like second parents!

ALLOWANCE PN provides students with a monthly allowance to cover their day to day expenses. Some families offer their contribution in accordance with their position (not more than $10 a month). PN ensures that every student obtains the same amount.

DMO $55 a month, used as follows:

BATCH 2011 In November 2011, PN Cambodia delivered 95 diplomas and 2 participation certificates to students of batch 2011. Three months later, all students have already found a qualified job. They work in many different sectors, such as IT, tourism, media, etc Currently, their average salary is $149. DMO In 2011, PN welcomed 100 DMO students (4 classes). They all obtained their certificates before joining our partner DDD (Digital Divide Data) as part-time data operators and continuing their training further.

MS. LEAKENA SUEN, BATCH 2011 My name is Leakena, I am 21 years old and I come from Battambang province. After graduating I started working for Wicam as an IT Officer and Customer Support. Basically I am the person to call if there is a problem with internet or clients. My salary is $150. PN Cambodia helped all students to find an internship in order to give us a first working experience. We all understood and appreciated the importance of their support. After graduation, it has been easy for everybody to find a job.

SOLIDARITY ACT
The aim of the Solidarity Act project is to create a broader sense of belonging and involvement for PNs alumni thanks to their contribution.

THEY SUPPORTED THE SOLIDARITY ACT

In 2011, the following companies supported the Solidarity Act project by offering to PN s alumni some special discounts on their products and/or services: ANANA COMPUTER ICE ELECTRONIC COMPANY KHMER STORE ISP DUMAX COMPUTER CENTER T&S LAUNDRY SERVICE EDEN KHMER RESTAURANT WISHDOM INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL

In 2009 a survey of the IT market and of the NGOs needs conducted by PN has pointed out that the growth of the IT industry in Cebu generated demand in all IT specialty areas: software programming, networks, and web design. The students follow a 3-year training at the University San Carlos. This training has been designed by Passerelles numriques to best answer the local IT industry expectations in terms of skills and attitudes, to ensure the best chance for the disadvantaged youths to find qualified employment. In June 2009, PN Philippines selected a first batch of 24 students, from different areas in the Visayas. In 2011 PN welcomed 109 students.

YEAR STUDENT WHATS NEW? In 2011, PN Philippines expanded its network, working with more schools and NGOs, and starting a collaboration with people from government such as Department of Education representatives or local mayors. All PN staff were involved at least in one of the selection phases and on the field. A broader use of Facebook facilitated faster and better communicating with the applicants. Since November 2011, a new staff member joined PN Philippines: Ms. Rhoda Dehito, a 24 year old Filipina. She is responsible of the Selection process.

That day, I was at home. I got a phone call. It was THE announcement: I have been admitted at PN Philippines. For the surprise I suddenly shouted, so loud that it alarmed my family! I knew that about 1.500 high-school students applied for the scholarship and I really didnt imagine being part of the few lucky ones. At the beginning, I hesitated a little bit before accepting the scholarship. I knew that PN rules are firm and I was not sure to be docile enough to respect all of them. My former teachers encouraged me to accept. It was a good decision, a once-in-a-life opportunity. I didnt expect that, but today IT is becoming a true passion! I appreciate a lot the staff: they trust us and they believe we could become whatever we want. It is very supporting!

INFOMATION SESSIONS A big gap between the number of participants to the information session and the number of applicants persisted. WRITTEN EXAMS At this step, the highest number of candidates has been eliminated because of their very unsatisfying level. MOTIVATION INTERVIEWS All staff have been involved in this phase, after getting an adequate training. SOCIAL INVESTIGATIONS In 2011, social investigations in the Philippines have been run by 2 new Educators, Ms. Marian Lumapat and Mr. Eduard Bucad, with the support of 2 social worker students. THE CONTRACT In order to save time and money, we asked families and selected students to gather in precise areas to sign the contract with PN.

TRAINING
MORE INVOLVED TEACHERS The training is delivered by the University San Carlos. In 2011 we worked to improve the quality of our offer: higher objectives, based on students performance during previous years; more experienced and involved teachers.

In 2011 PN Philippines recruited 4 teachers (2 full-time and 2 part-time). Thanks to their previous work experience and their technical profiles, the teachers contributed significantly to the improvement of curriculas contents, in aligning them with the progress of new technologies and the local companies needs. The teachers are now recruited directly by PN, without the intercession of the University: that means a broader adhesion to PNs mission and values. HELP THE STUDENTS TO COMPLETE SUCCESSFULLY THEIR STUDIES To successfully pass a semester, students cannot fail more than 1 subject. This rule has been established in agreement with the University San Carlos. In 2011:

collaboration with the teachers, they spent more time with them and provide them with additional tutorials. A REDESIGNED CURRICULUM On the basis of a market study, PN Philippines redesigned its curricula: besides the Systems and Network Administration curriculum (currently available at PNs center), starting from June 2012 students could choose another specialization, Software Development. This curriculum will opens new job opportunities for PNs students as the current demand of Software Developers and/or Testers is growing fast in the Philippines.

MS. HELENE HUARD, SELECTION MANAGER As our target stayed the same, during selection process 2011 we focused on the improvement of staff skills, with a view to 2012, when 90 new students will entry PNs center. After 3 years, partners and people know PN well: during the selection process, they are already waiting for us! Year after year, we try to increase our visibility and reliability among high-school students, to reach as more students as possible to offer them the opportunity to get the scholarship. MR. CORNELIO EDIZA JR., SNA TEACHER One of the most important priorities of PNs mission is making sure that the skills we provided our students with are in line with the labor market. Only with a constant and steady update of the curricula we offer, we can guarantee to our graduates that they will be competitive and able to meet industries requirements.

STUDENTS LIFE
PHILIPPINES: A PECULIAR EDUCATION SYSTEM In the Philippines, there are 3 stages of compulsory education: Preschool (kindergarten, scholars up to 6); Elementary (6-12 years old scholars); and High School Education (12-16 years old scholars). In concrete terms, that means that students usually enter the University when they are still very young. This aspect represents a peculiarity of PNs project in the Philippines: these young students need special care, from a pedagogical point of view, as well as adequate welcome infrastructures. In 2011, to guarantee to students all the support they need, PN hired 2 new Educators, Mr. Eduard Bucad and Ms. Marian Lumapat. The Education team is now composed of 6 fulltime employees.

COMPANIES RELATIONSHIPS
INTERNSHIP PROGRAM In 2011, the internship program was successfully extended to the 40 students of the 2nd batch. Overall, in 2011, there were 69 PN students partaking in internships in companies in Cebu. Five new companies decided to partner with us in 2011, making it a total of 14 companies (see table on the right). The paid internship program has been very successful. All the companies have given at least 75% of the minimum wage, of which 70% goes to Passerelles numriques to shoulder tuition fees and 30% goes to the students as a living allowance. This paid internship mechanism helps PN in reaching its financial autonomy (10% of the revenues).

students live in the Thomas Missonnier Center,

when 3rd year and 2nd year students moved to several boarding houses respectively in March and December 2011. Living on their own is a fundamental step of their education at PN: that allows them to become more independent and to manage their monthly budget.

MRS. MARIAN LUMAPAT, EDUCATION OFFICER The students have been very active in participating in the community service project. On weekends, students give tutorials to underprivileged kids in neighboring schools and childrens non-governmental institutions or extend their help and give some of their time to elderly people. Our partners for this endeavor are namely: St. Camillus Home for the Aged, Missionaries of Charity Home for the Aged, Little Servants of Christ the King Orphanage, Asilo dela Milagrosa Home for Children, Euphrasia Development Center, Enfants du Mkong, Pajo Elementary School, Paknaan National High School and Mandaue City Science High School. These activities help students to develop a strong sense of solidarity. Since June 2011 each student had rendered 108 hours for their community services. Our partners were very satisfied with the students performance. This successfully project will be proposed again next year. MR. CHERWIN OLIVA, 1st YEAR STUDENT I am Cherwin Oliva and I had my internship in Accenture. I feel very blessed to be given the opportunity to work in a multinational company like that! My colleagues taught me a lot, but I also discover new qualities of myself that I didnt even know to have! During the internship, I have been working as a Service Desk Analyst and as a Level 1 Support for onsite issues. This was for me the opportunity to understand what the real world is! If they offered me a job, I would accept - for sure! - as this first experience with Accenture has been very positive and I think I could give my contribution to the companys growth.

VIETNAM AT GLANCE

In Vietnam populations from the countryside, the outskirts of big cities and ethnic minorities from the highlands are all living in deep poverty. They are therefore also excluded from the higher education system. 85.7% of youth of working age do not have either vocational training or higher education (education after grade 12). Passerelles numriques created its youngest school in Vietnam in 2010 to fill this gap. In 2011 PN Vietnam welcomed 60 students. Another 60 new students will be enrolled by the end of 2012, when the school will reach its maximum capacity: 120 students per year.

THE PROCESS During the selection process, PN Vietnam runs the same steps as the other PNs centers: information sessions, written exams, motivation interviews, and social investigations. THE COVERED AREA In 2011, PN Vietnam opened its doors to 60 new students (total: 120). The selection process covered two new areas: Quang Tri, one of the poorest provinces in Viet Nam, and Kontum, the highland region with poor ethnic minority communities. In total, 5 provinces have been interested by the selection process in Vietnam in 2011: Quang Tri, Kontum, Da Nang, Quang Nam, and Quang Ngai.

TRAINING & STUDENTS LIFE

PARTNERSHIP WITH DA NANG UNIVERSITY All students attend the classes in the Software Development Center of Da Nang University. Thanks to the agreement signed with PN, by the end of 2 years students will get the official diploma of IT Technician delivered by the University. A CONSTANTLY UPDATED CURRICULUM The current curriculum, Network Administration & Programming, has been designed by PN according to the market needs and trends. Regular meetings with PN company-partners allow us to adjust periodically to the methodology and contents to make sure we deliver a demanding and efficient technical training. A SKILLED TEAM In 2011, PN Vietnam could count on the skills of qualified trainers and volunteers, with solid competences in programming (C, Java), network administration and several years of experience at Da Nang University and IT companies, such as IBM and Microsoft. The IT training has also benefited from the hands-on approach from teachers who are currently working at big IT companies in Da Nang such as FPT, Green Global, and Unitech.

* Number of students by step.

OUR SELECTION-PARTNERS Through East Meets West (EMW), PN Vietnam has worked with Study Promotion Association (SPA), a government agency with networks in each district and province, which promotes education through different activities such as looking for scholarship for talented students or for students from poor families. SPA introduced PN Vietnam and East Meets West to new schools in poor areas to cooperate during the selection process. In Kontum, PN was supported by Poussires de Vie and the University of Da Nang. In total 31 high schools were involved in the selection process. The board of directors of all the target schools recognized the opportunities that PN Vietnam brings to students and therefore strongly supported us in all selection steps. Twice a month, the house-managers (selected by their housemates) meet with PN team to update them about their special students problems, concerning both daily life or learning process. Every month, each boarding house is in charge of organizing an extracurricular activity involving all students and staff. A few examples of these activities in 2011 were the PNs got talent show during which students can sing, play, dance or perform in whatever they like to show off their talents; and the bicycle trip to Hoi An. MR. NGUYEN TRUONG NGOC DUC, 2nd YEAR STUDENT ALLOWANCE My name is Duc, I am 20 years old and come from the province of Da Nang. My mother has been sick for about ten years and my father has never worked. I applied to become a student in PNs center as I wanted to do something for my family. I was very happy to know that my candidature was accepted. Since then, my skills improved remarkably. Sometimes I do some small part-time jobs, for example installation or maintenance of PC, to earn some money to share with my parents. I like to be a member of PN, here it feels like being at home, like a family! MS. NGUYEN CUU NAM PHUONG, BUSINESS LIFE TEACHER I really enjoy working with PN students; they are so energetic, motivated and caring. I strongly believe they all have a brilliant future waiting for them thanks to PNs program! PN Vietnam is in charge of all expenses linked to the boarding houses (rent, furniture, cooking utensils, etc). Students receive VND 900.000 (about $21) a month for food and their personal daily expenses. BOARDING HOUSES When 1st year students joined PNs center in Da Nang in September 2011, they have been placed in boarding houses shared with the 2nd year students, so they could help them during their first period in a new city. Currently, the 90 students live in 7 houses (from 8 to 14 students per house).

A SECOND LIFE FOR THE PC

Since its foundation, PN Vietnam has been working in partnership with local IT companies in a project aiming to recycle and reutilize used computers: A second life for PC. The steps of the reclaim circle are simple: partners offer their damaged laptops to PN Vietnam so students can fix and reconfigure them. Once computers are repaired, Passerelles numriques donates them to high-schools located in poor areas. This program has two-folded impact: PNs students can have computers for practicing for hardware and computer repairing classes and students from poor areas have computers for their learning.

PN IN FRANCE
Passerelles numriques headquarters team, based in Paris, is composed of 5 employees and 3 volunteers working at least on a part-time basis. The main tasks of the French team are fundraising, recruiting volunteers for the mission on the field and defining the terms of the partnerships with the companies that support PN. A network of about 15 Ambassadors help PN by offering some of their spare time to spread information about PNs mission and activities and to raise funds for the organization.

2 events in 2011: Volunteers Party (January & December 2011) Every year Passerelles numriques welcomes to its offices former volunteers to inform them about the most relevant news from the field and to discuss their experiences within the organization. This is also a great opportunity to thank them for their precious contribution to the project. In 2011, 2 parties were organized for volunteers: on the 7th of January and on the 9th of December.

PERSPECTIVES
PN CAMBODIA
In terms of activities, administrative situation and fundraising, 2011 was a year of consolidation for PN Cambodia. For instance, the dividing up of our students between SNA and WEP went from 75% - 25% to 50% - 50% in an effort to match as closely as possible to the needs of the labor market. Several actions which started in 2011 will continue in 2012: Optimize the transfer of resources between the different project centers. Improving the communication and cooperation between the centers will allow us to create more synergies across countries, save money, and accelerate the scaling up of new centers. The development and implementation of local fundraising tools and the validation of the action plan adopted in 2010: The Solidarity Act is now required from every student, starting from promotion 2013; The PN Cambodia scholarship system should start in 2012. This contract will be proposed to companies hiring PNs students: the company sponsors one or more students and PN follows-up the students first during the internship and then during the 1st year as an employee.

PN and MEDIAS
2011 has been characterized by a big change within Passerelles numriques: a new visual identity, new colors, and a new logo. Our objectives, principles of action and values stay the same. However, we have grown and are still continuing to grow and develop operations in different countries. We feel its important to show a single global image, as we operate everywhere with the same mission and the same professional passion. With this aim of harmonizing our center in Cambodia, that has been always known as CIST, is now called Passerelles numriques Cambodia. PRESS & ONLINE REVUE

PN VIETNAM
From September 2012 the number of enrolled students will increase from 90 to 120 (2 batches in total) and we will enroll 60 new students in September 2012. The whole staff of PN Vietnam is currently working to be prepared for this important challenge in terms of selection process, adaptation of the curricula and welcome infrastructures. In 2012, in collaboration with the University of Da Nang, PN Vietnam will organize workshops on different subjects, such as pedagogy for teachers, soft skills training (more and more required by the labor market), application of virtualization, security, and Linux. Job placement will also be explored with companies and organizations in the provinces, especially the original hometown of the students, to enhance the impact of the training program beyond the qualified job that students get after the training: the contribution of students to the IT development in remote areas in Central Vietnam. The first batch of PN Vietnam will graduate in 2012.
