All About Blog Posts
Naomi Pentrel
Blog posts are helpful for their readers. Yet, they are also immensely valuable learning tools for their writers. People often say that you will never know a topic better until you've had to teach it (or until you've written a blog post about it). As with many things, it can be difficult to get started though. This talk will cover the whats, hows, and whos of writing a blog post.

From baker to coder, my journey into tech on the School of Code Bootcamp
Victoria Bate
6 months ago Victoria was running her own award winning bakery and coffee shop. She loved what she did but didn't want to get up at 3am for the rest of her life! Victoria has spent the last 16 weeks on the School of Code Bootcamp in Birmingham learning to be a full stack javascript developer. She thoroughly enjoyed it and is excited about her future in tech.
Win free stuff at WiT Notts!
This month at Women in Tech we'll be giving away a copy of the fantastic book, Hidden Figures, the phenomenal true story of the female mathematicians at NASA whose calculations helped fuel some of America's greatest achievements in space.
Attend and tweet on the #WiTNotts hashtag to be with a chance!
