BECA is a non-profit organization in Nicaragua that provides technical school scholarships to high school graduates who cannot otherwise afford further education. It started in 2008 in Masaya, Nicaragua. BECA's scholarship program involves three months of computer training and three months volunteering in a primary school. Their goal is to facilitate continued education for motivated Nicaraguan students lacking financial resources. The process includes attracting candidates, qualifying them, and supervising successful recipients. One past recipient describes completing BECA's English course, obtaining a job at a call center, and being able to support his family as a result.
