January 8, 2009 - What resources are needed to support the growth of co-operative enterprises? How do you create synergy and cohesion among local co-ops? Many different models for supporting co-operative enterprise development have been used over the years, with varying degrees of success. The federation model, co-operative development councils and co-op development centres are three such models.

This presentation by Dr. Lou Hammond Ketilson (Associate Professor, Department of Management and Marketing; Director, Centre for the Study of Co-operatives, University of Saskatchewan) introduced the various models and highlight the factors that have contributed to success.
