MOMENTUM
Build your leadership pipeline
Many companies only invest in developing employees after they’ve been promoted to a director, VP or an executive role. But, what about the path to manager and director or other roles of influence and impact? Why not invest in your future leaders now?
With Momentum, you can.
Our signature program is a live, online learning experience focused on self-leadership for early-career women.
This foundational curriculum was uniquely designed to help them cultivate self-knowledge, identify their strengths, effectively navigate workplace dynamics, find their voice, combat imposter’s syndrome, self-advocate, take on stretch assignments and strengthen internal relationships. Participants in the program learn to proactively take control of their own success with more skill, confidence and self-awareness.
Organizations that invest in women have a female workforce that’s more engaged, satisfied and motivated to stay for the long haul – while setting themselves apart from competitors when vying for the best talent.
Available for groups of 20 participants or more. Momentum can be contextualized to company values and strategic priorities.

Who can join Equipt Women’s Programs?
Equipt was created by women for women to help overcome systemic gender inequities in the workplace. We welcome all those who identify as a woman, non-binary, or gender non-conforming. Our programs are designed for young professional women who are within the first ten years of their career or who are seeking support, empowerment and new skills.
We are actively seeking collaborators. If you share our mission and are interested in getting engaged with us as a mentor, coach, sponsor or donor, click here to get started.

What is the difference between the Equipt Academyâ„ and Coaching Podsâ„ ?
The Equipt Academy℠is a curated learning journey for people who enjoy live courses and want to dive deep for a short amount of time. There are three levels designed to be experienced over 2-3 years. Each level is a multi-week experience that includes live classes led by expert instructors, group coaching, role playing and peer group support. Coaching Pods℠are groups of 8-12 peers who meet online once per month for two hours, led by a certified coach. Coaching Pods are ideal for women who want to connect, learn and grow over the course of one year, but don’t have the time to dedicate to a course.
Both the Equipt Academy and Coaching Pods are designed specifically for young professional women seeking career advancement and transformation. You can learn more about our offerings here.
Do I have to sign up for all three of the Equipt Academyâ„ programs at once?
No. Each program has its own sign-up. Currently, Momentum is the only Academy program available for sign-up, and participants are not obligated to sign-up for additional levels when they are available, although we encourage it.😉
When does the next Academy program start?
Thank you for your interest in our Academy program. Please contact us for more information at hello@equiptwomen.com.Â
When does the next Coaching Podâ„ start?
Enrollment for Coaching Pods occurs on a rolling basis. Complete our Interest Form and we’ll let you know when we’ve matched you to your coach and peer group.
Do you offer a free trial for Equipt Academy and/or Coaching Pods?
No, and here’s why. The Academy and Coaching Pods are designed to cultivate clarity, connection and commitment in a confidential setting over a period of time. They are not intended to be experienced on a drop-in or trial basis. It's also not a great experience for the women who have signed up for the full commitment.
Do you have any age restrictions?
We recognize career trajectories exist independently of age. However, our programs are designed for young women in their 20’s and 30’s and in the first ten years of their professional career.
Do you offer financial aid to individuals?
We are an inclusive learning community and strive to make our programming available to as many people as possible. We offer free events and low-cost workshops to be as accessible as possible. We recognize that some women who want to participate may not have the financial means, be employed or have the support of their employers. As a result, we dedicate a portion of our seats in each Academy program to need-based scholarships. To be considered, apply here.
How can I get my employer to pay?
Most companies allocate budgets for employee growth and development and as a result, often reimburse employees for this type of investment. Check out our reimbursement tips and tricks.Â
What is your cancellation policy?
We understand that life happens. We’ve created solutions that help participants and organizations navigate these changes and allow us to preserve the learning experience for every cohort.
We allow for one deferral that is redeemable within one year of the deferral request. In this one time offer, participants are able to defer to a future session of the same program at any time.
If a participant chooses to withdraw from the program, a full refund will be given provided the request occurs in writing before the end of the first week. For example, if a session begins on January 24th, deferral requests must be made by Monday, January 31st.
No withdrawals or refunds are possible after the first 7 days of the program.
Does this program offer a certification?
Yes, after submitting a Game Plan, participants will receive a Certificate of Completion at the end of every Equipt Academy program.
