Get Into Tech

Three women in Tech

Overview

Get Into Tech is a 10-week employment programme that is designed to break down barriers and open doors for young women from migrant and refugee backgrounds who are ready to step into Australia’s growing tech sector.

The programme combines skills development, practical work experience, and industry connections to create pathways into tech careers.

This is your chance to gain valuable skills, kick-start your future, and make an impact in building the digital world we all live and work in.
