About CareerPoise Global

BIPOC women collaborating and learning together

For too long, women have been at the margins of opportunity — overqualified yet underpaid, ambitious yet overlooked, creative yet underfunded. At CareerPoise, we're rewriting that story.
We exist for the woman who's ready to rise, who just needs the skills, the support, and the space to do it. Whether she's entering the workforce or pivoting into tech, CareerPoise walks alongside her every step of the way.

"This isn't about fitting in. It's about helping BIPOC women own the room and then build their own."

But our impact goes beyond technical upskilling. We nurture confidence, amplify underrepresented voices, and foster strong, supportive communities where BIPOC women are empowered to lead, innovate, and shape the future of work in Canada.

Our Vision & Mission

Defining the future we're building together and the mission that drives us forward every day.

Our Vision 🌍

To see a world where BIPOC women are not merely included in the future of work but are defining it, leading it, and transforming it.

We envision a Canada and a global workforce where racialized women are no longer the exception, but the expectation in boardrooms, tech hubs, innovation labs, and entrepreneurial ecosystems.

A world where diversity is not a quota, but a core driver of excellence. Where Black, Indigenous, and women of colour are seen, heard, respected, and resourced to thrive — not just survive.

Our Mission 🎯

To empower BIPOC women with the tech skills, tools, and community they need to secure meaningful employment, advance in their careers, and achieve economic freedom while building lasting confidence and leadership capabilities.

We provide equitable access to training, mentorship, tools, and community needed to thrive in today's digital world. Our programs are intentionally designed to close opportunity gaps, nurture leadership, and build lasting confidence.

We are building toward a future where:
