Career change — where to start?

Any advice for women looking to explore a career in tech that have no real technical experience? Are bootcamps worth the money? What resources are available for those of us looking to get our feet wet and wanting to learn more?

I would definitely recommend you to join the Webinar on Monday on "Breaking into STEM without the Degree". We have a wonderful panelist of females in Johnson & Johnson who have all taken up a STEM2D roles without having a scientific or technical degree. They will share their paths and provide advise to anyone who have the same interests.

I started taking some free online coding courses to see if it's something I'm really interested in! Right now I'm doing one by Institute of Code and I like it so far. Would love to know if anyone has found any success with bootcamps though...
