A career in the ICT sector has no limits anymore. Your job can range from traditional engineering or programming to designing new types of mobile phones or saving the environment.
Information and Communications Technologies are important to every aspect of our lives. The European Commission decided to do something about the lack of women in IT careers. Together with several leading technology companies the Commission organised a series of shadowing days to show young women that technology is not at all strictly for geeks!.
Get involved and experience your own shadowing day. You can all do IT!
