Last week I started a tour of the schools in DYW Edinburgh, Midlothian & East Lothian. Seeing employers in action in the classroom is a great reminder of why we do what we do at DYW. Thank you to Amanda Stewart, CISSP from Illuminate Technology for all of your time, energy and enthusiasm, your'e passion for diversity in Tech came through in our discussion and the young people at Craigmount High School thoroughly enjoyed your session. My task for the night - clean my fan on my laptop now I know how to do this 👍 thanks again Amanda.
