St. Albert Adult Learning Centre has entered into a new partnership with the Sudbury Action Centre for Youth (SACY). “This partnership will open doors for youth in Sudbury by providing them with numerous learning opportunities,” says Cassandra MacGregor, Vice-Principal of St. Albert Adult Learning Centre. “Through this partnership St. Albert will help fulfill the dreams of the youth in the Sudbury area and create a passion for lifelong learning.”
St. Albert’s offers youth the ability to achieve a high school diploma in one year and grade nine and ten credits in just one month through prior learning assessment and recognition. The centre also provides non-traditional, flexible adult classes through which students can upgrade their literacy, numeracy and computer skills. E-learning, correspondence and day classes are but of a few examples as to how the Adult Learning Centre can tailor the learning environment to suit individual needs. Students can also obtain specialized computer training in Word, WordPerfect and Excel in order to better prepare themselves for the workplace and future careers.
