NSI Business for Producers – Atlantic Women’s Edition was designed to foster the growth of women producing professionals in the Atlantic provinces, as well as enrich the region’s production community, and its position across Canada and globally.
During this six-week, part-time online training program, nine women* built on essential producing skills, including preparing a pitch package for a current project in development. The curriculum was customized to fit the needs of each producer, with training from regional and national industry professionals, advisors and business experts.
