Women are under-represented in the world of technology. In April, a three-day conference is trying to change that. The ACT-W National conference is full of engaging leadership training, professional development, community building and networking opportunities. This conference is meant for talented women and supporters in technology to connect with other leaders and organizations in the community.
The city of Phoenix has partnered with the ACT-W National conference to offer a special rate for their three-day conference at the Phoenix Convention Center. If you reserve your spot by Feb. 7, the price will be $365. You should check with your supervisor about taking the time to attend and to see if your EDF funds may cover the costs. Details:
