The Women in Technology program, which ran for three years through the Open University, was a retraining program for qualified, experienced women technologists who had left paid employment for family reasons. It was designed to assist in the updating of technical knowledge and the promotion of confidence and skills in career planning for those women who were planning to return to professional work. This report focuses on one year of the Option 1 segment of the program, when 30 women began the first year of a 2-year retraining program with T101, the Open University's technology foundation course. Evaluation of the program is undertaken from several different perspectives, including the evaluation of student progress; evaluation by students of the course and the tutorial program; case studies of successful and unsuccessful students; and student evaluations of the summer school program, including concerns about domestic arrangements and sexist attitudes on the part of men students and tutors. Based on the findings of the evaluations, five ways to improve educational opportunities for women in this non-traditional area of study are suggested. (EW)
