Geschiedenis

ACTEW, originally Advocates for Community-based Training and Education for Women, was a provincial membership organization for programs that provided community training to women. It began in 1988 as an outgrowth of another provincial umbrella group, ONESTEP, Ontario Network of Skills Training and Employment Programs. The women's organizations belonging to ONESTEP decided they needed a more women-centered, feminist organization to represent their specific needs. ACTEW changed its name in 2004 to A Women's Training Community. Over the years that ACTEW existed the organization published many reports, briefs and responses to government initiatives including: Access Diminished: A report on women's training and employment services in Ontario (2001); Challenges and Connections: Meeting the Information Needs of Professionals Working with Immigrant Women (2001), Operation Access (1989), Choosing Training, Shortcuts to Career Development Resources for Girls and Women. The group dissolved in 2008 due to lack of funding.

ACTEW, à l'origine Advocates for Community-based Training and Education for Women, était une organisation provinciale regroupant des programmes de formation communautaire pour les femmes. Elle est née en 1988 d'un autre groupe provincial, l'ONESTEP (Ontario Network of Skills Training and Employment Programs). Les organisations de femmes membres de l'ONESTEP ont décidé qu'elles avaient besoin d'une organisation féministe plus centrée sur les femmes pour représenter leurs besoins spécifiques. ACTEW a changé de nom en 2004 pour devenir A Women's Training Community. Au cours des années d'existence d'ACTEW, l'organisation a publié de nombreux rapports, mémoires et réponses aux initiatives gouvernementales, notamment Access Diminished : Un rapport sur les services de formation et d'emploi des femmes en Ontario (2001) ; Challenges and Connections : Meeting the Information Needs of Professionals Working with Immigrant Women (2001), Operation Access (1989), Choosing Training, Shortcuts to Career Development Resources for Girls and Women. Le groupe a été dissous en 2008 en raison d'un manque de financement.
