As the longest running Self-Employment training program in Edmonton, ACTI has provided this government-funded business training to more than 1400 Albertans over a 23-year period, helping them upstart and run their own business. A major reason for our program's success, is the team of over 18 entrepreneurs and business specialist who are the very trainers and instructors who coach our students in the various areas of their expertise. This ensures that the 10 weeks of in-class training are practical, relevant, and thorough. Another reason is the 16-week mentoring phase where you receive personal coaching from an experienced entrepreneur as you take those crucial first steps in your business. The team at ACTI is proud to continue providing this program in partnership with and fully funded by the Government of Alberta with support from the Government of Canada.
