AWSN Tasmanian Chapter

Australia Women in Security Network (AWSN) Tasmanian Chapter

The AWSN started in 2015 to connect women who were often feeling isolated in organisations and in tertiary education institutions with like-minded individuals.

Women and those who identify themselves as female make up half our population, however, the number of women working in security in Australia is low (with women in cybersecurity making up only 17%).

The AWSN is a not-for-profit association and network of people aimed at educating women and girls on security and increasing the number of women in the security community. We support, inspire, and act as role models. We connect women in the industry and those looking to enter the field with the tools, knowledge, network, and platforms needed to build confidence and interest. We know the diversity of threats requires diversity of thought on how to address them, and this is where our network thrives.

We believe that defending, protecting, and educating all types of companies, Small-Medium Enterprises, Not-for-Profit organisations, education institutions, and all Australians requires different minds and types of people.

The AWSN Tasmanian Chapter runs Weekly Meetups, Events and facilitates access to national training programs.

To learn more about AWSN and find out what is coming up in Tasmania go to AWSN Events Calendar.

Digital Tech in Australian Schools Report

Tech skills for the next generation

Digital Technologies education in Australian schools

Checkout this insightful new report from ACS in partnership with the Tech policy centre (ANU) looking at the challenges facing our ICT teachers nationally.

This report provides a roadmap for the Australian Government, state and territory governments, and the education sector over the next five years to best support teachers to deliver high-quality and engaging programs in Digital Technologies for Australian primary and secondary school students.

The goal is to better engage young Australians in Digital Technologies through their school years. This will equip them with the essential digital technology capabilities for their future participation in society and encourage more young people to pursue technology-related careers

The recommendations in this report are informed by the most recent ACS survey of Australian primary and secondary schools conducted in 2023. This survey provides insights into what is and is not working well in teaching the Digital Technologies Curriculum, and where further support could be provided to teachers to increase student engagement and participation.

ACS partnered with Australian Survey Research to conduct the 2023 survey, and with the ANU’s Tech Policy Design Centre (TPDC) to explore the policy implications of the survey results. This report builds on the previous ACS survey from 2020, which is discussed in the report Computer education in Australian schools 2022: Enabling the next generation of IT professionals.
