We all know that Ofsted has a key focus on how schools are increasing knowledge for technical careers, as well as ensuring broad careers education for female students.

With this in mind, CCH are supporting a Women In Tech Discovery Event open to all students aged 14-18 and accompanying teachers. Supported by employers, Just IT Apprenticeships, and other partners from the tech sector, the event will provide female students with information and inspiration for a career in technology. Including job options such as;

•    Web and Software Developer
•    IT Engineer
•    Games Designer
•    Cyber Security
•    Data Analyst
•    Digital Marketer
•    And many others

All of these careers have skill shortages and represent exciting, creative, supportive and well-paid career opportunities for women.
