     WINNIPEG 
     
     (CUP) — Entrepreneurship 
     
     training will soon be avail- 
     
     able to northern communi- 
     
     ties all over the West, if the 
     
     Manitoba department of ed- 
     
     ucation can entice other edu- 
     
     cation ministers into signing 
     
     a distance education agree- 
     
     ment. 
     
    

    
     “The project will involve 
     
     the four western provinces, 
     
    
   
   
    
     the North West Territories 
     
     and the Yukon,” said Don 
     
     Lussier, executive director 
     
     of the newly created Dis- 
     
     tance Education and Tech- 
     
     nology branch of the min- 
     
     istry education. 
     
    

    
     “Our proposal is to use 
     
     print, computer networks, 
     
     TV, video and satellite to get 
     
     this course through to people 
     
     in remote areas in all six edu- 
     
    
   
   
    
     cational jursidictions (in the 
     
     West),” said Lussier. 
     
    

    
     While the branch is hop- 
     
     ing to have the agreement 
     
     signed by January, they have 
     
     already outlined a plan of ac- 
     
     tion. 
     
    
   
   
    
     “We have to do a needs 
     
    
   
   
    
     analysis to find out what peo- 
     
     ple would like in a course on 
     
     entrepreneurship, give this 
     
    
   
   
    
     to the jurisdictions to de 
     
     velop the curriculum, and 
     
     then find out how to reuse or 
     
     modify resources already out 
     
     there,” said Lussier. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The education level of 
     
     the people tying into the pro- 
     
     gramme is expected to be 
     
     college level or, more basic.
