Women in Tech

Focused around creating career pathways and long-term opportunities for women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) the Women in Tech Working Group is focused on technical training and mentorship, building community with Tech organizations and employers to create a network of opportunities, and continuing to explore and expand the Tech landscape for all women.

TechSavvy Program

The inaugural Women in Tech program, TechSavvy, was born in response to the impact of COVID-19 on women in the workplace  - and the growing need to be comfortable on the computer. The program is designed to build this computer literacy through a six-week, one-on-one tutoring program. Participants and mentors meet weekly for roughly an hour to learn, practice skills, discuss personal and professional goals, and build their confidence on common applications. The program is tailored to best fit the participant - A sample program outline has been included  below.

  • Participants
  • Participants have given resounding feedback that the program helped build their confidence on the computer and overall. They also benefited from dedicated help troubleshooting and getting answers to questions.
  • “It's a Great program and is very necessary during this time.” – Pilot Participant
  • “I really enjoyed the one on one sessions. I loved...having an accountability partner helped me stay focused..” – Former Participant
  • Volunteers
