Women in Technology & Trades (WiTT) at Lambton College is a supportive, industry‑connected community for women interested in technology and skilled trades. WiTT encourages exploration, learning, and career growth in these fields.
When women have equal opportunities in the workforce, economies thrive. We need more women in non-traditional fields, like carpentry, because when women are in these workforces it not only promotes gender equality but also drives economic growth and innovation
