If you are a female and want to learn how to build websites, we have good news for you! We are hosting a one-day workshop for beginners!
It will take place on 7-8 April 2017 in Geneva. After the success of the first workshop and the high participation last year, we decided to repeat it this year.
We believe that IT industry will greatly benefit from bringing more women into technology. We want to give you an opportunity to learn how to programme and become one of us - a female programmer!
The workshop is free of charge. Don’t wait for too long - you can apply for a pass only until 27 March!
We have space for 30-35 people, so make sure to fill out the form very carefully!

Do I need to know anything about websites or programming?
No. The workshop is for beginners. You don’t need to know anything about it. However, if you have a little bit of technical knowledge (i.e. you know what HTML or CSS are) you still can apply!
I only speak French/English, can I attend?
Of course! The workshop will take place in English and French with the help of our awesome coaches.
Should I bring my own laptop?
Yes. We have no hardware, so we expect you to bring your computer with you. It is also important for us that YOU take back home everything you’ll write and create during the workshop.
Do I need to have something installed on my laptop?
It would be helpful to have Django installed before, but we don't expect you to install anything on your own. We will make sure that one of our coaches help you out with this task.
Is food provided?
Yes. Breakfast, snacks and lunch will be served during the workshop.
We could not have reached this point without the support of great people and organisations who have provided us with the funding, knowledge and time to help us make this project a reality. We thank them very much for their support!
Many thanks to IdeaSquare, the CERN Information Technology Department, as well as the CERN Diversity and Local Engagement teams!
Join these awesome people for a free crash course on 07-08 April - the Django Girls Geneva event!
We would like to thank the volunteers for the organisation and the participation in the event!
