Dear Colleagues,
There has never been a more exciting time to be a female learning about technology!
The Canberra Girls’ Programming Network is a community for female students to learn about computer programming and technology through workshops and gives exposure to female role models across academia, government and industry.
What
The workshop topic is Cryptology!
The art of protecting secrets started thousands of years ago from the early Egyptians.
