Shadow Tech getting more young girls into IT

Thursday, May 4th, 2017

NZTech initiative Shadow Tech is attracting more young girls into IT. The programme, run inĀ Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga, Rotorua, Palmerston North, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin, gives young girls an opportunity to spend the day in a tech company, shadowing a mentor.

Produced with the support of the Ministry of Youth Development, Shadow Tech Day is a collaboration between NZTech and the Manukau Institute of Technology bringing together tech firms and other tertiary institutes throughout New Zealand, to connect hundreds of schoolgirls with the possibilities of tech.

If you are interested in finding out more about the programme or registering to become a mentor, visit the website here.
