Farewell 2020, Hello 2021!
It’s quite an understatement to describe 2020 as a year like no other. We at IEEE SCV WIE hope that you and your family have been safe and healthy during this unprecedented period in history.
While we couldn’t have our usual array of networking events, talks, conferences and all that IEEE is synonymous for, there were still quite a few highlights from the year to share. We’ve summarized the best parts in our blog: December 2020
Tabata Event Thursday, February 25, 2021
IEEE Santa Clara Valley Women in Engineering invites you to join us for a virtual Tabata workout on Feb 25th, 6:00pm-7:30pm PST.
Tabata is a type of HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) that is four minutes long.
In this workout, you cycle through eight rounds of 20 seconds of work and 10 seconds of rest.
Kelly’s tabata will be rhythm-based so you can dance through the pain and have a blast!
