EWAAT - Empowering Women for Applied AI Transformation
To equip women to integrate ethical, applied AI into everyday workplace workflows by addressing structural barriers that limit consistent use and advancement.
Despite rising demand for AI skills, women remain underrepresented in AI-focused roles. VETS Group Training Academy introduces a three-year initiative, EWAAT - Empowering Women for Applied IT Transformation - to eliminate barriers to AI adoption through hands-on training, certifications, immersive VR/AI labs, peer networks, and employer partnerships. The project aims to equip women, including veterans and career-changers from underrepresented groups in DC, Maryland, and Virginia, with practical AI skills for workplace integration.
