For instance, Johnson & Johnson is among the companies trying to turn the talk into reality. The company has a diversity and inclusion program with three pillars intended to target three areas the company has identified as crucial. But beyond that Johnson & Johnson, along with SoftBank, Accenture, BlackRock, Workday, Target and many others have partnered with a program called Data Science for All/Empowerment, created by Correlation One. The program provides a 16-week free training program in data science and analytics, taught by instructors from universities including Harvard and MIT, to Black, Hispanic/Latinx, LGBTQ, and female students. The program just welcomed its second cohort of 1,000 students chosen from a pool of 25,000 who had submitted applications. The current class of "fellows" is 58% Black and 36% Hispanic or Latinx. The first cohort graduated 500 people last year.
