“I’ve been a part of WIT for over 15 years and I’ve seen the organization evolve and adapt to the variety of needs women in the tech field have as well as needs tech companies have. Women need challenging, high-paying jobs with room for advancement. WIT has created programs from the classroom to the boardroom to train women who can innovate, execute, collaborate, and lead tech initiatives. WIT’s Single Mothers Program is a shining example of how WIT is continually broadening its reach to support women. Single mothers with low-paying or no jobs, who have an aptitude for math/science, receive extensive training including graduating from the program with a certification in Cybersecurity. Companies benefit by employing women who are passionate about their work, appreciate the opportunity to prove themselves, and are a positive influence on those around them. Way to go WIT for continually pushing the envelope for women!”
