Credit Card Fraud Prevention: Jim Boutcher
Palmerston North Software Developers
23 Jun 2022, Thursday 5:30 PM. RSVP
Jim fell in to fraud prevention by accident when he was applying for another job. But he discovered it is fascinating. His main tools are SQL, analysing series of transactions looking for trends and oddness. He says "I'll be talking about fraud and scams more generally, rather than ANZ's approaches, although that will definitely be in there... I'll focus on cards, because that's my most relevant area, but will touch on identity, internet banking and invoices." Please RSVP so we know how much pizza to buy.We usually walk to Brew Union around 6:30-7pm for the social half of the meeting.
Manawatū Digi Fest
29 Jun 2022, Wednesday 12:00 AM
The Manawatū DigiFest is a STEM festival for schools, an EXPO. You and your students will need to think about how they can SHOWCASE their learning in a way so that other people can view, enjoy and understand the learning. Think about how you might present your learning - will it be a digital artifact (like a movie, a game, an app, a website, a presentation?). Will it be something hands-on (like a cardboard box challenge, a model of something, a maths concept, a science concept?). Will it be a display? Or will it be something that people can interact with?
