What we do
We organize free workshops for women* without prior experience in programming. These workshops are led by skilled Ruby on Rails programmers who are eager to help newbies and to increase the number of women* in IT. During our workshops, we try to create a cozy space where questions are welcome and where there is no pressure nor competition. To accomplish that, we keep the group sizes small and have one dedicated coach per two or three learners.

Success Stories

Lisa
The biggest obstacle is at the same time sometimes a motivating one: there is a lot to learn and there is always more. So the first step is to make learning a habit. You will always learn new things so it is crucial that you don’t discourage yourself if you don’t know something. You just have to learn it.
Sponsors and Partners
Each of our events is sponsored by great companies as well. Check them out at the event-pages.Since we’re always working on future events, any financial support is highly appreciated. If you’re interested in helping us, ping Sabine and Ellen at sponsoring@railsgirlsberlin.de

Over 150 years ago, Ada Lovelace, history's first programmer, proved that computer science and women are outstandingly well-matched. The University of Applied Sciences in Berlin offers a full-time bachelor program specifically for women in Computer Science and Economics. The program is based on the latest innovative learning and teaching methods, for example practical project work and hackathons as well as e-learning and compact courses

Posteo is an independent email service based in Berlin. We are highly concerned with sustainability, security, privacy and usability. Posteo is completely ad-free and 100% powered by green energy from Greenpeace Energy. We advocate for “informational self-determination”: In these times of network surveillance, Posteo protects the privacy of its users with a modern and innovative encryption and security model.
