Project Report | Sep 9, 2019
New development

By Denisa Sabova | Project Manager at Aj Ty v IT

High school girls

Coding Clubs –Aj Ty v IT Coding club Martin - were focused on creative electronics. We programmed small handy devices called “micro:bit” at a workshop led by skilled lecturer. All the participants were introduced to the logic of micro:bit and were able to code simple tasks thanks to graphic blocks. The course was aimed to all curious high school girls - age 15-19 years, who are interested in the magic of IT world.

New Academies for women

For all women that have an interest in the world of IT, data and analysis, we are setting up a new project - Women data academy. Women data academy is aimed to women that have developed a positive approach to mathematics, technologies and that are willing to work in the field of data analytics. Data analysis has wide scale of usage and the goal of the course is to introduce participants to the problematics of data analysis. Registration for this course starts in september.

Those curious women who are interested in the IT world and do not know where and how to begin, can sign up for Women Tester Academy. The aim of the course is to prepare the participants for software testing of various applications and greater functional modules. The graduate will gain valuable skills, which will enable easier preparation for certification test ISTQB Certified Tester - Foundation Level.

In addition to the new academies, we also organized workshops that can not only improve the skills of our graduates, but also raise the success rate of getting a job. The courses were designed for women interested in technologies, UX and various soft-skills as well (for instance How to make your wage higher).

 

Lecturers

Thanks to our lecturers we can progress with our education and offer to our students studies of high quality. Lecturers go through progressive selection process aimed on personal and vocational profile.

 

This project is managed by the organization Aj Ty v IT (You too in IT). Thank you for keeping up with us!
