This article is about the WISE program (Women Interested in Successful Employment), initiated in 1987 by CCLOW-Newfoundland in co-operation with the Association for Lifelong Learning. The WISE program was an innovative bridging program which offered flexible learning, counselling, and self-development. It was established to assist women who were seeking to enter or re-enter the work force and women who wanted or needed to re-direct their career paths or develop skills of career decision-making.
