International Computer Security Day with Next Tech Girls

Are you Female (Non-Binary) aged 14-19 and curious about the exciting world of cybersecurity? Then join our workshop, brought to you collaboratively by TCS and Next Tech Girls. 

This workshop is a special celebration of International Computer Security Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness of the importance of cybersecurity and the ever-growing number of diverse roles in the field. 

What to expect:

Women led expert panel: Hear from cybersecurity professionals who are at the forefront of this field. They'll share invaluable insights, top tips for online safety, and explain why cybersecurity is the most up-and-coming job in the tech industry. 

Q&A Session: Have burning questions about cybersecurity careers? This is your chance to ask industry experts about their career journeys and the exciting roles within cybersecurity. 

Hands-On Activity: Put your problem-solving skills to the test with an engaging cybersecurity activity. 

While this event is open to all genders, we particularly encourage girls and non-binary students to join this session. Only 26 percent of people in the tech industry are women and Next Tech Girls and TCS are working to change that. This is your first step to becoming future women in tech!

Next Tech Girls  

Next Tech Girls inspire today's girls in education to become tomorrow's women in technology. In 2022 just 26% of people working in the UK tech industry were women. Next Tech Girls was set up to tackle this underrepresentation at the grassroots level. 

Next Tech Girls partner with companies and educational institutions to deliver tech-focused events, workshops and work experience placements for teenage girls. They provide them with hands-on experience and insights into the opportunities available at a critical age, when studies show their interest tends to drop off. Next Tech Girls are shaping their futures and the future of the tech industry.
