How do I decide which career is right for me?

Academy of Learning has introduced several new programs to complement its well established business-oriented diplomas and certificates. These choices give the students a wide variety of options for their future career. The student should determine where their aptitudes and capabilities are and then meet with a school representative to discuss alternative program options. The student can then select the field that will satisfy their interests and allow them to achieve their personal goals.

How often do programs start?

Enrollment for any Academy of Learning course is continuous, which means that individual courses start every day. Career diploma programs start every Monday. This allows the student to begin their studies immediately.

How do I pay for my courses?

Courses may be paid for on an individual basis or by pre-payment of the total amount of the selected program. Federal and Provincial financial assistance in the form of student loans and grants may be available to qualified students to help with the cost of tuition and other expenses.

Is the school accessible to students with physical challenges?
