Our Passion / Mission

WIT Career ConneXions, in partnership with Emory University, is changing the trajectory for training and hiring women by partnering with the right forward-thinking companies who believe there is more to a person’s talent than a 4-year degree.

They understand there are women who have nontraditional backgrounds, some have left the workforce to care for their families and these companies want to work with you to create learning and working environments where you can thrive. 

Whether you have a four-year degree or not, whether you have technology skills or not, our mission is to train, promote, and advance all women everywhere in rewarding technology careers.
