About our study groups: our sessions are for women, or anyone who identifies as one, who would like to get into programming, learn a new programming language, do programming homework or just wants to connect!

This is your chance to learn in a relaxed setting with other women. The study groups are free, no prior knowledge is required, and everybody is able to work at their own pace.

It's also a time to have fun, network, and ask our mentors anything about how they got into working in tech roles (all our mentors are women who work in the tech area).

We hope to see you there! 👋
