SWE-ECI is excited to share that we have won the WOW! Innovation Video Contest. Our Core Board put together a 5 minute video promoting the East Central Iowa Section showcasing all the reasons why we have loved staying involved with SWE as professionals. We won a $1000 prize that will be put into our outreach efforts for the next FY! Thank you to Olie Ray, Nicole Felderman, Jill Nagle, and Kristen Wagner for participating in the video.

Congratulations to Nicole for winning! SWE-ECI hosted a lunch webinar on 6/24/21 where we watched a seminar from the virtual WE20 conference called "Microaggressions: a new way to define and address these subtle acts of exclusion in the workplace" by Gloria Cotton. In the webinar she talks about different forms of exclusion, what a person does if they don't feel included, and how we can stop the cycle. The first step to stopping microaggressions and bias's is awareness of them and speaking up about them! Gloria Cotton taught the group how to provide feedback when in a situation of someone else says something bias to us and she also taught us how to receive feedback when being called out on a microagressive or bias comment. These are all great skills to add to our tool belt!
