She Codes; Free 1 Day Coding Workshop for Women
Event description
Who Codes? She Codes!
Join us for a day of self-paced coding fun and in a friendly and safe place, at our new home Murdoch University x Spacecubed, located in the heart of Perth CBD.
We offer beginner-level HTML & CSS, and Django & Python workshops, in a self-paced environment, mentored by industry professionals. PLUS we offer lunch, cupcakes and a quick dance break in the afternoon. No experience is necessary - just a laptop, a sense of adventure and a willingness to learn.
Our goal is to increase the diversity in the tech community, spark collaboration, creativity, and expand networks - and we can't wait for you to join us on this journey.
