ISACA Muscat cordially invites you to the "Virtual SheLeadsTech Meetup 2020 - Stay Informed Stay Safe” along with the She Leaders in your organization on 24th Oct 2020 Saturday

SheLeadsTech is a women-focused program which works to increase the representation of women in technology leadership roles and the tech workforce. Powered through a vast global network of women IT professionals dedicated to supporting others, SheLeadsTech provides women with mentor-ship, leadership training, and skills training to grow and excel within that industry.

Purpose: ISACA believes it is crucial for the tech industry to solve the under-representation of women in the workforce. Our global reach of engaged professionals provides ISACA with a unique position to effect change as we address the deficit in gender diversity. The SheLeadsTech program will do this by:

Raising Awareness - We will work to educate employees, allies and engaged professionals so that we can overcome unconscious bias.

Preparing to Lead - Our training and skills development programs will prepare current and upcoming female leaders for the digital future. We do this by inviting SheLeadsTech members to chapter CPE programs which are open only for chapter members

Building Global Alliances - Through strategic partnerships, we will amplify our impact beyond the ISACA network and support our chapters as they tackle the unique challenges in their region.

This year ISACA Muscat chapter launch first virtual SheLeadsTech Meetup 2020 - "Stay Informed Stay Safe" on 24th Oct 2020 at 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm Muscat time.

Post COVID19, Technology and the internet play a big part in our lives both in good ways and in bad. The Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is the first pandemic in history in which technology and social media are being used on a massive scale to keep people safe, informed, productive and connected. At the same time, the technology we rely on to keep connected and informed is enabling miscreants to target innocent and uninformed people online. As women, we are targeted online for many different reasons, but that does not mean we should disengage or disconnect.

Our hope is this event will empowers Women to protect and defend them self and their families online and in social media. This event is aimed at empowering women to navigate the internet well informed, aware, safely without fear and Setting a new future with smart use of technology"
