Hi there, Just a quick note to say that Prue Purser, Head of the Christchurch College of Computing, will be at today's CSI Elevator Cafe to give us a quick run-down on what they are doing to get more women into IT careers and the challenges involved.
So, ladies, make your way through the fog to the Cii (200 Armagh St, 5pm) and show her that IT is not necessarily a man's world! (OK, you guys are welcome too -- after all, I *think* the CSI executive team has a gender split of about 50:50, which is probably a first for a generic IT management group... :-) And there are other good speakers too: Erron Henderson - talking about EOS Interactives Simon Moore - an immigration specialist talking about how the new immigration laws affect organisations in our sector especially with recruitment Grant Franklin - relating success stories of the Real Contacts system (it's not *what * you know, you know...) To be followed by the BBQ, so BYO if you're staying on to network, unwind and catch up with things social and techie while you wait for the fog to lift. Cheers, Vicki Hyde one of the notoriously noisy women keeping the CSI chaps in line :-) ====================================================== SPIS Ltd, Box 19-760, Christchurch, NZ http://spis.co.nz * FREE TurboNote+ sticky note trial: http://TurboNote.com --> via Canterbury Software email forum: Success through Connections Email your messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Searchable list archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Leave or rejoin the list: http://canterburysoftware.org.nz/forum.htm
