ABOUT CHICKTECH: HIGH SCHOOL
ChickTech: High School is a program created to show high school girls that engineering can be fun and exciting! We’ve created a comprehensive year-long program introducing 100 girls to technology, the fun things you can create with it, and related careers.
ChickTech: High School is a yearlong series of events. It begins with a weekend-long event for 100 high school girls (or cohorts, as we like to call them) to spark their interest in careers in the high-tech industry. The workshops are all hands-on and interactive. Workshop themes include robotics, web programming, gaming, and building computers. The workshops facilitate a learning process beyond the actual event; not only will the girls have either software or hardware to take home, but they also continue to remain engaged throughout the year and continually learning through follow-up workshops.
All workshops are hands-on and project-based so that they come out of each with a sense of accomplishment and a burst of confidence.
