Women in Information Technology - CITI – 香港六合彩开奖结果2023 CCEC partners with CITI to help middle and high school young women learn more about computer science and the careers that are associated with them. The sessions are 90 minutes in length for middle school students and 45-60 minutes for high school students, consisting of a presentation, videos and games facilitated by Citi employees. Topics include facts about women in IT, the types of roles that are available, inspirational personal stories and information about the lifestyle benefits that an IT career can provide. Participants are also asked to complete web-based assessments before and during the course to help identify activities that interest them. The course then relates those skills and interests to careers like project management, computer programming and graphic design, among others. Each role description also includes background on the average salaries and typical educational requirements.
