If you are a woman and want to learn how to make websites, we have good news for you: we are holding a two-day workshop for beginners!
It will take place on 23-24 March 2018 at Thinkific in Vancouver.
We believe the IT industry will greatly benefit from bringing more women into technology. We want to give you an opportunity to learn how to program and become one of us – a female programmer!
Workshops are free of charge! Just need to bring your motivation and your dreams! Don't wait too long: you can apply for the workshop only until March 10th!
