Django Girls Poznań

Django Girls

If you are a woman and want to learn how to make a website, we have good news for you: we are holding a two-day workshop for beginners!

It will take place on 24-25 JUNE 2017. We'll be starting off in room 0011A of the Poznan University of Economics - al. Niepodległości 10

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 – women programmers!

Workshops are free of charge and if you cannot afford coming to Poznań but are very motivated to learn and then share your knowledge with others, we may have some funds to help you out with your travel costs and accommodation.

We're sorry, but registration is now closed. Follow us on Facebook or Twitter to be the first to know about upcoming events!

Applications are closed!

Applications for Django Girls Poznań #1 workshop are now closed. We are very excited to have the opportunity to organise free-of-charge workshops. However, there are only 60 spots available, that is why we cannot accept all the applicants. Here you can find a blog post on how we score applications.

Do I need to know anything about websites or programming?

No! Workshops are for beginners. You don’t need to know anything about programming. However, if you have a little bit of technical knowledge (e.g. you know what HTML or CSS are) you still can apply!

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 will take home everything you’ll create during the workshop.

Do I need to have something installed on my laptop?

It would be helpful to have Django and Python installed before workshops, but we don't expect you to install anything on your own. We will make sure that one of our coaches will help you out with this task.
