Digital Future with Dell Technologies

Ada Scotland Festival

Help us tackle the gender balance in computer science.

Scotland’s technology sector is growing one and half times faster than the overall economy! With further growth predicted, we want to help students take the first step towards thinking about a career in technology and the many technology career options available to them.This one-off session highlights the importance of technology and gives an overview of the different careers available in the tech sector. During the session, two representatives from Dell will facilitate an interactive discussion about different careers in the Technology sector, with the aim of helping your students think about the many technology career options available to them.This session is ideally suited for Secondary School students before they choose their subjects for Nationals or Higher. If possible, students should have access to a personal device to access online polls during the session.Speakers:
