  • 🔍 What worker co-operatives are and how they function
  • 🤝 The benefits of shared ownership—from job stability to community impact
  • 🛠️ Steps to start or convert a business into a co-op
  • 💼 A real-world example of successful worker co-op in Nova Scotia

Whether you're exploring new career paths, thinking about starting a business, or just love learning something new—this session is for you!
