 WTS History
Since 1977, WTS International, originally named the Women’s Transportation Seminar, has focused on promoting the advancement of women in the transportation industry.

Only a short 47 years ago, women were largely discouraged from participating in professional associations unless the activities were deemed educational. In response, a pioneering group of women organized luncheons and workshops, considered acceptable “seminars.” These founding members supported one another, used their connections to advance their careers, and began to idealize a more diverse, inclusive, and equitable transportation industry. Your support in this continued effort is greatly appreciated.
