Kakkukahvit 3.3.

Engineers Finland kannustaa kaikkia nauttimaan kakkukahvit insinööriyden kunniaksi perjantaina 3.3. – vinkkaa siis työpaikkasi HR-osastoa, piipahda lähileipomossa tai päästä jauhopeukalosi vauhtiin! Haluamme nähdä kakkukahvien runsautta myös somen puolella, laita siis kuva jakoon 3.3. hashtageilla #worldengineeringday #wedfi23.

Naistenpäivänä 8.3. toivotamme kaikki tervetulleeksi EF:n ja Women in Techin webinaariin, jossa kuullaan tutkimustuloksia Belonging in tech -tutkimuksesta. Lue lisää alempaa tältä sivulta. 

Celebrate and eat cake on March 3

Engineers Finland encourages everyone to have some cake and coffee (kakkukahvit) in honor of engineers on Friday, 3 March – so give a tip to your workplace's HR department, stop by a local bakery or get your own cake going! We want to see the abundance of cakes on social media as well, so remember to post your cake and coffee moment with the hashtags #worldengineeringday #wedfi23.

On Women's Day 8 March we welcome everyone to the webinar of EF and Women in Tech, where you will hear research results from the Belonging in tech study. Read more after the video.
