Ladies Learning Code Halifax will hold its 2017 Kick-Off event on Saturday, teaching women and youth basic programming skills at its Data Processing with Python for Beginners workshop.

Ladies Learning Code is a not-for-profit organization with the mission to be the leading resource for women and youth to become passionate builders -- not just consumers -- of technology by learning technical skills in a hands-on, social, and collaborative way. 

This is a great story of the Halifax community coming together to provide women with a safe, fun and welcoming environment where they can learn to code.

The kickoff workshop will be held at the Innovacorp Enterprise Centre on Jan. 28 from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. You can register here.
