Technovation GirlsBC’s Intro to Java Workshop

Coding in Java Workshop

Curious about coding and don’t know where to start? Are you interested in learning to code in Java and applying it to this year’s Technovation Girls project?

Join us at BCIT’s Downtown Campus on March 26th & 27th for Technovation GirlsBC’s Intro to Java workshop!

Upon completing our free two-day workshop series, students will understand the basics of coding, including the four components of computational thinking, variables, data types, arrays, conditionals, and loops, and how to use them.

By the end of this workshop, you will build a basic app (rock paper scissors game) that can be used as a reference to build your own project for the Technovation GirlsBC 2022 competition (note: participants do not have to be enrolled in the Technovation Girls program).

Location: BCIT Downtown Campus,  555 Seymour St, Vancouver, BC

Schedule: Saturday, March 26, 9:30 AM – 2:30 PM and Sunday, March 27, 9:30 AM – 2:30 PM
Lunch will be provided each day (Tacofino and Railtown Cafe).

  • Participants must be between the ages of 13 to 18.
