The Information Technology Girl - eWorkshop with Ann Moffatt, Founder of FitT
Tuesday 15th December 2020, 12pm - 1pm
I’ve worked in the Information Technology industry since 1959. From the first days I’ve loved every bit of it. Yes, there have been a few days I could have done without but overall I’ve been paid handsomely to have tremendous fun. It's enabled me to successfully raise 2 wonderful children and to indulge my passion for travel.
When I first came into the IT industry there were only about 300 computers in the world.
There are now many billions.
In this e-Workshop I will share what I and many other women have learned while working in our exciting and fast changing profession and we'll have some question time to answer any questions or learnings you've had for yourself or other women.
