Join us for Eastern Iowa Community Colleges' (EICC) seventh annual Women in Information Technology (WIT) Conference at Scott Community College Urban Campus in downtown Davenport. The one-day conference is open to area women working in technology-related fields, current students, and women who might be considering a technology career.
Through breakout and keynote sessions, participants will learn about cyber security, project management, new innovations in technology, career search and interview skills, what it like for women in the work place, and more.
This year’s keynote speaker is the Founder and CEO of Veterans Tech Support, Abigail Johnson. She will present "Veterans Tech Support: Technology Training for our Nation’s Heroes" and share her story—how a 14-year-old high school student was able to land the 2021-2022 Pilot Pen ‘Science FriXion’ STEM Grant and establish a successful 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
Other sessions include:
Cyber Escape Room
Technology Hiring and Compensation Trends

The Train Has Left the Station, But I’m Still on the Platform: Change and Stress Management
