About North Carolina Technology Association-WISE Outreach

In response to the decline of graduates in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) across the nation, Charlotte WISE provides outreach into the Charlotte, NC community to stimulate new and continued interest in these very important areas. Our programs emphasize STEM and business-related topics and target middle school and high school girls, as well as women with established careers in technology. We hope that our networking opportunities, career fairs, scholarship program and community initiatives will encourage increased involvement by women in the information science and engineering workforce.

The WISE program continually evolves as NCTA works closely with a group of women who represent member companies to:

EDUCATE – Produce informative and educational forums that are of interest to a diverse group of women;

ENGAGE – Provide unique network opportunities for women across the state of North Carolina;

EMPOWER – Promote women in technology and encourage young women to pursue technology careers.
