We will generally link to ONESTEP members' sites.

We may consider linking to a site in any of the following situations:

• the site is for a non-profit community-based trainer (CBT);
• the site is for a government, government program, or government department that provides services or information of interest to CBTs and CBT clients;
• the site is for a public educational institution (public school, college, university etc.);
• the site is for an institution offering public services, generally at no charge (libraries, museums, etc.);
• the site is for an organization whose activities may affect CBTs or CBT clients (social development councils, training boards, community health centres, foundations, etc.); and
• the site offers, at no charge, a substantial amount of content that our site's visitors may find useful (e.g. a site that offers extensive job search advice and interactive features).

• the site matches none of the inclusion criteria listed above;
• the site is for a for-profit company;
• the site charges visitors a fee to use some or all of its online services;
• the site requires visitors to provide personal details before accessing the site's content, where such information is not necessary to content provision;
• the site exists primarily to advertise or promote fee-based services of any kind; or
• the site provides information we conclude would be of little use to communities, community-based trainers, or community-based training clients.
