As part of the Intro to Tech Series, the Demystifying Tech session will take place at Borders College Galashiels Campus on Tuesday 20th February 2024 from 1.30 pm – 3.30 pm.
Brought to you by South of Scotland Enterprise, SRUC, Borders College and Techscaler, this session will pull back the curtain and show you how easy it is to use software and explore tools you can use to build digital products.
This event aims to inspire the audience into the world of tech. Through the planned talks, the audience will hear about low-code and no-code tools to encourage a sense of exploration and trial and error. Attendees will leave with an understanding of how easy and accessible it is to build software products and hear from people who have built tech products without a background in tech or software.
