Conclusions

The Native Women’s Association of the NWT Training Centre program is successful for a number of reasons:

• The non-threatening and supportive environment that instructors are able to create meets the needs of the learners in this particular program and is conducive to effective learning.
• The holistic approach to learning ensures that not only academic needs of learners are met, but that learners have the opportunity to develop mentally, socially, physically and spiritually.
• The work experience component is highly effective in developing skills that are transferable to the real world.
• The program demonstrates its commitment to valuing the cultures and languages of learners.
