Amazing opportunity for high school girls (aged 13-16) from our STEM friends over at Girl Geek Academy!
It is well documented that young women are under-represented in STEM subjects and careers due to complex and long-standing cultural issues including a lack of representation of female role models in STEM, cultural stereotyping and inadequate support. In fact, currently, only 16% of Australian STEM University graduates are women which has a knock-on effect on overall representation in the technology industry and STEM workforce.
This year Girl Geek Academy is partnering with Microsoft Australia to launch the FREE FOR STUDENTS 'Girl Geek Academy x Microsoft AI Technical Series', designed to inspire and educate Year 7-10 (13-16 year old) female students to solve problems with AI by building technical skills.
Amazing FREE STEM learning opportunity for high school girls:
⭐ Learn coding, technical and AI skills

⭐ Access inspiring women models at Microsoft & Girl Geek Academy, and hear their career journeys
⭐ Virtual sessions after school at 4:30pm-6pm AEDT, every Monday from February 22 – June 21 2021
