Don't wait too long: you can apply for the workshop only until 10th October,2017!

We have space only for 30 people, so make sure to fill out the form very carefully!
Do I need to know anything about websites or programming?
No! Workshops are for beginners. You don’t need to know anything about it. However, if you have a little bit of technical knowledge (i.e. you know what HTML or CSS are) you still can apply!
I am not living in Tarkwa, can I attend?
Yes, you can! We welcome people from all over. Do go ahead to register if you are really interested, then send us an e-mail at tarkwa@djangogirls.org explaining your circumstances and we will see what we can do.
Should I bring my own laptop?
Yes. We have no hardware, so we expect you to bring your computer with you. It is also important for us that you will take home everything you’ll write and create during workshops.
Do I need to have something installed on my laptop?
It would be helpful to have Django installed before workshops, but wouldn't expect you to install anything on your own.We will make sure that one of our coaches will help you out with this task.
