Cisco Girls in IT

Arrival: 9:00
Event: 9:30am – 2:30pm

This event is for students aged 12-14 (Yr 8 and Yr 9).

The day's purpose is to inspire students and open their eyes to the world of possibilities. This event is being coordinated across 14 UK and Ireland sites simultaneously, which is incredibly exciting!

The day includes:

• An introduction to the world of Cisco and the different roles and opportunities linked to a career in technology.

• Interaction with employees, students and other sites through the national keynote.

• Participate in a variety of engaging and interactive activities and seize the opportunity to delve into the realm of cybersecurity, computer science and more.

• In the afternoon, they’ll implement their soft skills by taking part in a Dragon's Den task set by Cisco and showcase their work to the room.

These activities will help develop a range of skills, including collaborative design, computational thinking, communication, and critical thinking.

The organisers will provide lunch and snacks.
