This year, CyberWomen Groups C.I.C. has been working with students across 8 different Universities, to provide opportunities and support for both women and under-represented groups in Cyber Security. To meet our mission of creating an inclusive community that welcomes everybody, and encouraging positive change towards diversity in STEM, in the 2023-2024 financial year, we have: From beginning with one university, expanded and worked with eight universities. Each University we work with is called a branch, and that branch has an Executive Team that take on roles and responsibilities. They are volunteers. Have 3 ‘Reps’ that carry out the same roles as Executives but are not part of a branch as they do not have enough peers to begin a branch. They are volunteers. Built an ‘Internal Team’, a team of volunteers that work with the branches directly to support their growth and achievements. This forms of 2 Branch Managers, a Marketing Manager, an Alumni Manager and a Technical Liaison. They are volunteers. Held a national conference with over 250+ attendees. Supported students in hosting their own events for the community, including Capture the Flag challenges, networking events and competitions around topics in Cyber Security. Held workshops and talks for local schools and education communities, to inspire more young people to consider taking Computer science GCSE and explaining all the career opportunities in the field. Designed and hosted a Capture the Flag challenge for CRESTCon, for students and new professionals to take part in during the conference. Paid for students travel to attend events where they are representing the C.I.C., for their own personal and professional benefit. Partnered with other companies to host events, including industry and other non-profit organisations, for the benefit of students to learn from professionals. We are building a community for Alumni students to join when they graduate. Begun forming a podcast, called ‘Inside Cyber with CyberWomen’ – including speaking on other podcasts to understand the format and set up. This will be open to all our students to speak on a topic of their choice. Written blogs about our students and their events to encourage more people to attend and become executive members, and other topics in Cyber Security for people to read and learn from.
The company’s stakeholders are the students in each branch executive team or student reps, our Internal Team, the companies we work with to host events, and our incoming strategic partners. The directors have built the business model based on their student experience, and work with all our stakeholders closely. This year, we held an anonymous feedback form for all our student executives, to understand their experience being part of the community and what we could do to help them more and provide them more opportunities. From this feedback form, we bought on new volunteers to take on roles such as marketing, alumni and the general management of our university branches. We refer to this team as our Internal Team and are all volunteers. Additionally, we created a notion page to ensure all the information they need to successfully run a branch is simple and easy to find. We are also creating policies and procedures regarding inclusivity, language and ensuring everybody in our community feels welcomed and supported. We also have a general feedback form always open to the students for any suggestions they would like to make through the year. As our new Internal volunteer team and the strategic partners are very new, consultation has not yet been had. However, it has been agreed that the internal volunteer team and the strategic partners will be consulted for feedback every 6 months via a video call. We do not consult with our industry partners, other than an email covering any feedback regarding events we have hosted together.
