Older Workers in Agriculture Project
A joint initiative of provincial and federal governments, this project ran from 2001-2003 and provided skill upgrading and career counselling for farmers between the ages of 55 to 64 in the North East region of Saskatchewan. In order to have 40 participants to meet the federal guidelines, the age range was extended to 50-64 and participants from outside the region were accepted. One-on-one contact was the main key to success. The project is over now and Dorothy is no longer working for the college.
