"At Vic ICT for Women, we pride ourselves on creating programs that inform and support women right from school age all the way to the top. We want to ensure your enthusiasm for ICT is encouraged, nurtured and passed along to the next generation of women through events and programs structured to help at each stage in your journey.

Despite 70% growth of ICT jobs since 1996, women account for only 16% of ICT roles.

The Victorian ICT for Women Network is an industry-driven initiative which aims to facilitate entry, retention and progression for women working in ICT."

From Teaching London Computing a set of posters for your classroom.

"We hope that you and your class will find the posters inspiring and that it encourages your students to find out more, but we also hope that they will work in the background too, to normalise the fact that computer scientists come in all varieties. There are people of different gender, ages and ethnicities in the poster set and we will be adding more people."
