Conestoga plan woman's course
BY JOANNE
BUCHANAN
There are more women
in the Canadian work
force than ever before.
Because of this, many
women are finding it
increasingly difficult to
get jobs. It is a fact that
the unemployment rate
among women is higher
than that of men.
As a partial solution to
the problem, the
Public school news
Canadian' government is
advocating untraditional
jobs for women through
courses such as the one
now being offered by the
Canada Employment
Centre and Conestoga
College in Clinton.
The course, called
Introduction to • Non -
Traditional Occupations
for Women, will be taught
by Mary Ramsberry at
Conestoga College in
Clinton beginning
January 7. It Will run for
eight weeks, with four
weeks , of in -school in-
struction and four weeks
of practical instruction in
various industries. It is
open to women 17 years of
age and over who have
bpen out of school at least
one year.
The purpose of the
'course, according to Bob
McDougall, local training
What's new(s) at CPS
The following poem..
was written by a grade
seven student at Clinton
Public School in
reference to the Tut
treasures. •
Tutankhamun
•Two men so brave and
bold,
Dug up the treasurers of
Egypt's old.
Tt took them long but they
didn't give up,
To find the treasurers of
young King Tut.
A step, a seal
Much to their appeal.
They found the tomb of
Tutankham un,
With treasures of gold
which were uncommon.
Treasurers of gold and
alabaster,
Their hearts began to
beat much faster.
A golden guard standing
in the door;
The sight of the curse
caused their minds to
soar.
They looked around
But no mummy was
found.
Between the guards there
was to reveal
Another kind of a royal
seal.
The first peek in they had
to stare
For a golden wall was
shining there.
Then they saw the
mummy case
And Tutankhamun's
golden face.

liason •officer at the
Canada Employment
Centre, is to get women
interested in occupations
they wouldn't otherwise
probably consider. These
• occupations could include
construction work, truck
driving, operating
machinery, welding, etc.
Mr. McDougall says
some of these non-
traditional jobs offer
much better wages than
the taditional ones for
women. He also feels that
employers are becoming
more recepti4 to women
in all occupations. In fact, •
it is discriminatory to
overlook a woman for a
job simply based on the
fact that she is a woman.
Courses, such as the
one being offered at
Conestoga in January,
are being held across the
province. In some of the
larger centres they have
been running for two or
three years. Mrs.
Ramsberry, who will be
teaching the course in
Clinton, has worked with
a teacher conducting a.
similar course at
Conestoga's Waterloo
campus for the last three
years.
This is the first time
such a course has been
held in this area though.
It may be offered a
second time if enough
people . show interest.
There are openings for 10
women.
Mr. McDougall says for
some reason women in
smaller communities

that there are.m any more
job options available to
them than they might
think.
"It should motivate
them to look for other
jobs," he says.

latest of several offered
through the Canada
