Are You Interested in Programming
& How Websites are Built? Register NOW to be a part of #DjangoGirlsMakurdi
– a Free Programming Workshop for Women in Makurdi
Django Girls is a global
Non-profit organization that helps women get involved with technology and
enabling them to become part of the evolving tech world by teaching them to
build their own website using #Django and #Python programming language.
Our goal is to demystify computer programming,
explain how the internet works and inspire women to become creators of
technology while still pursuing their passions either in fashion, beauty,
business or looking to get into the technology space. We show women how easy it
is to bring their brilliant ideas to life by empowering them with the right
tools, resources and a great community of Women in Technology.
After the First DjangoGirls workshop early last
year in February, the workshop has recorded many successes including DjangoGirls
attendees going on to mentor other women, and also co-organize more DjangoGirls
events in Ogbomoso(LAUTECH),
Akure (FUTA), Ife(OAU), Port-Harcourt,
Ota (BellsTech) and Minna(FUTMinna).
The
workshop will take place on the 24th and 25th of February
in the beautiful city of Makurdi and its absolutely FREE to register and
participate.Registration can be done on the workshop website https://djangogirls.org/makurdi/apply/
The workshop is aimed at total beginners, so
don’t worry if you know nothing about building a website. Participants would be
mentored in small groups by an experienced and dedicated coach. Applications
opened in December 2016 and will close on February 10, 2017.
