Important

Last year, ACTIMS held the sixth Women in Trades Award & Bursaries Program for members of the Building Trades who are working in the heavy industrial construction/maintenance industries in Canada.

From the dozens of applications received, we were able to recognize three (3) women from various Locals across the country who demonstrated excellence, integrity, and leadership in their respective trades at their workplace.

Once again, ACTIMS will be commencing the program for 2022, and is hoping to attract even more participation in the upcoming year!

Attached is the information package that outlines the program in detail, and an application form, which interested candidates must complete and return with their pertinent documents, to Karlee Ainslie ainslie@trades-ab.ca . Applications can be submitted from February 1^th through till April 30^th.

A tripartite committee comprised of members of the ACTIMS Board of Directors will assess the applications during the month of May, and present their recommendations to the full Board for approval. Winners will be recognized at the ACTIMS Annual General meeting in July 2022.

Please note that this information and the application form can also be downloaded from the ACTIMS website www.actims.ca
