<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
</header>
<div class="content clearfix">
<div class="question">
Why did you start TechDiversified?
<div class="answer">
In 2014, some of the world's leading technology companies <a target="_blank" href="https://blog.twitter.com/2014/building-a-twitter-we-can-be-proud-of">released their diversity metrics</a>, confirming what many already knew -
<br>
<strong>
people of color and women are largely excluded from high-paying tech jobs.
</strong>
<br>
It is time to level the playing field.
<br>
We want to help develop and funnel talented people of color into high-paying tech jobs. This will help companies find qualified individuals for their unfilled positions as well as provide higher income salaries for populations that <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_wage_gap_in_the_United_States">typically earn less than average.</a>
</div>
</div>
<div class="question">
Is Tech Diversified open to everyone?
<div class="answer">
Yes. Inclusivity is very important to us. Although our target audience is <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person_of_color">people of color</a>, our primary goal is to have a positive learning environment that welcomes everyone regardless of race, age, religion, sexual orientation, disability or education - we want to work with everyone.

Where are workshops & meetups held?
