Our mission is to connect, support & prepare women of all ages for careers in technology.
About us
Charleston Women in Tech is a collaborative effort of Charleston’s women leaders, educators, and tech professionals to support and mentor women of all ages in the technology industry. At Charleston Women in Tech you can connect with other brilliant women from the Charleston tech community and discuss important topics such as work/life balance, working in a male dominated industry, and how to navigate the hiring process. We have a fantastic group of mentors and women leaders from throughout the community available to discuss these topics and share their insights. So come, learn, network, and be inspired by our panels, events, and forums! Exposing girls to computer science is an essential step in closing the gender gap in the tech industry. If you are interested in volunteering for an all-girls youth coding club, let us know!

As we prepare for Charleston Women In Tech's 10 year anniversary celebration on 10/10, I invite anyone in our network to share your written or video testimonial of what #CHSWIT has meant to you over the years. Maybe you were a recipient of scholarship funds, or you participated as a mentor/mentee in one of our annual mentorship programs. Perhaps you spoke at one of our quarterly spotlight events, or, just maybe you were an engaged member of our community who enjoyed from the audience. No matter what your role was, we'd love to see and hear your feedback as we celebrate this amazing milestone next month! Please submit any testimonials by no later than 9/15 to give us time to consolidate and edit our celebration video. https://lnkd.in/eC4Apyv5 Jessica Brewer, Christina Lock, Kaity Miller, Valerie Sessions, Nina Magnesson, Jamie DeMent, Kadedra Kiner, SPHR, Valerie Warnock, SHRM-CP, Jenifer Padilla, Erin Diehl
