Support for high schools

The pace of change in digital technologies is extraordinary. Artificial intelligence, unprecedented computer power, the Internet of Things, big data and automation will continue to increase and transform the way we work, the way we learn, and the jobs we do in the future.

Our comprehensive, sustained outreach effort in high schools consists of workshops, school visits and events designed to inspire young women to explore endless career possibilities in Computer Science and IT.

What we often hear from educators:

"Tech material should be more engaging"

"Young women must have role models – you can't be what you can't see"

"Career pathways must be easy to understand"
