The Working Centre's 58 Queen Street South location is an official CAP site.
The Community Access Program (CAP) is an initiative developed to help provide affordable public access to the Internet and the skills to utilize it effectively. Under CAP, local schools, libraries and community centres act as "on-ramps" to the Information Highway and provide support on how to make the best use of it.
Access to the Information Highway will help create awareness of the Internet's potential to create new and exciting opportunities for jobs and growth, by providing communities with the ability to communicate with one another, conduct business, enhance job skills or simply exchange ideas and information. Once fully implemented, CAP will help Canadians use the Internet to:
- Access federal, provincial and municipal information services
- Seek out domestic and international business opportunities
- Develop value-added products and services
- Create local enterprises, jobs, growth and social development and
- Learn valuable skills to reap the opportunities provided by the knowledge-based economy.
