About AcademyWomen

AcademyWomen was founded in 2003 as a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the professional and personal growth of women from the nation’s officer development programs. We are an organization created by and for women military officers as a ready source of support, mentorship, personal and professional development.

AcademyWomen is aligned for the greater good of the military and it is our belief that every woman who chooses to serve her country should be fully prepared to do so. AcademyWomen stands behind this belief by providing supplemental sources of education, leadership development opportunities, and resources to gain better personal and professional balance. AcademyWomen also serves as an advocate for military women and women veterans.

We offer programs to support and enable our members such as: a cross-service eMentorship Leadership Program, an annual symposium, regional events to strengthen dialogue between our members, and public policy research focusing on the professional development of women in the military. In addition, we provide insight, research and advocacy on policy issues relating to women veterans.

We are a global leadership organization of current and former military officers, cadets, midshipmen, candidates and all individuals committed to the success of AcademyWomen’s mission. Our members are the world’s outstanding leaders, including: military officers, astronauts, pilots, combat leaders, ship commanding officers, business executives, diplomats, civic leaders, entrepreneurs and homemakers.  Our members are the pioneers who bravely sought military training and now represent a new and outstanding paradigm of leadership.
