Did you know that NCWIT now has a job search tool that lets people search for jobs with NCWIT members?

This new tool is easy to use, unique to NCWIT members, and a win-win for both employers and candidates: members get more publicity for their open positions, and candidates get to see that our members support the recruitment and retention of women.

Last night we held the Puerto Rico Award for Aspirations in Computing in partnership with the Georgia Tech College of Computing.  In classic Georgia Tech fashion, the event was fabulous.

On Saturday March 3, 2012, I had the pleasure of serving as the master of ceremonies at the 3^rd annual Bay Area Affiliate Aspirations in Computing Award Ceremony at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California. This fantastic NCWIT program celebrates the hard work and talent of girls and teachers nationwide every year. It was a humbling and an inspiring moment. Twenty-three outstanding high school students from the San Francisco Bay Area were honored for their achievements in computer science.

March 3, 2012,  the Bay Area  Aspirations Award Ceremony took place at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View. Parents, teachers, supporters, and of course, the girls, filled the environment with smiles. The day was gorgeous, and the California sunshine definitely attended the event, too. Anyone could sense the excitement of the girls who were finally being told Good Job, Keep Going, You're Doing Great, You Can.
