We’re showing young girls what it’s like to work in the technology field, complete with a hands on coding experience and inspiring discussions with current women leaders in the industry. This Free Microsoft YouthSparkDigiGirlz 2 Hour Workshop is a fun and informative way for girls to get excited about a future career in technology.

This free, 2-hour DigiGirlz Workshop at your Microsoft Store is a fun way for girls in middle school and high school (ages 14-18) to understand why computer science is important, and to use computer science to enhance things they already love doing, both now and in the future. What’s more, they’ll get an inside peek at what it’s like to work in technology; learn how to pursue their passion; and see that a successful career in technology is within their reach. The Workshop includes an inspiring presentation from real, local women in the industry and a Q&A session.
During the second hour, the girls will also get hands-on with our., which teaches coding fundamentals. At the end of the Workshop, they’ll see cool resources that can be used to learn how to make awesome stuff with computer science.
Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to meet new role models, get inspired by the pros, and get a hands-on introduction to the world of coding. To join us for our YouthSpark DigiGirlz 2 Hour Workshop, register today.
