DS4W+ Mixer | Leveraging Your Transferable Skills to Break into Tech

VOLTA : 1800 Argyle St Unit 801

Ends Oct 28, 2026, 10:30 PM

Career transition is one of the most common pathways into Nova Scotia's digital economy, yet many people underestimate the value of the skills they already have. Join us for an interactive session exploring how to identify and communicate your transferable skills when pursuing opportunities in tech. Drawing on insights from Digital Nova Scotia's recent Digital Economy Report, we'll discuss where employers are investing in talent, how to position your existing experience for digital roles, and hear real examples of successful career transitions. You'll also take part in a hands-on activity to map your own transferable skills before connecting with fellow participants in facilitated breakout rooms and networking.

Whether you're just starting to explore a career in tech or preparing for your next step, you'll leave with practical tools, new connections, and greater confidence in what you already bring to the industry.
