The University of Massachusetts Amherst is leading a Commonwealth Alliance for Information Technology Education (CAITE) to design and carry out comprehensive programs that address underrepresentation in information technology (IT) education and the workforce. CAITE will focus on women and minorities in groups that are underrepresented in the Massachusetts innovation economy; that is, economically, academically, and socially disadvantaged residents. |

Poster Session at National Science FoundationCAITE and GeorgiaComputes! presented their work to the National Science Foundation in Arlington,Va. on March 21. Some 40 students and educators told the story of how CAITE has improved computing education in Massachusetts. NSF Deputy Director Dr. Cora Marrett (former provost at UMass Amherst) especially enjoyed meeting students. Thank you to all our partners who helped make the poster session and site visit a success.
