Native Education Centre
About Our Program
The Native Education Centre provides basic educational and literacy services to adult Native and non-Native learners. The Centre ensures that programming respects the culture and heritage of the learner, while ensuring their literacy and numeracy needs are met in a holistic and supportive environment.
In addition to assisting adult learners with reading, writing and numeracy , we assist learners with academic upgrading services to help individuals develop the necessary skills for entry into college/university/trade/apprenticeship programs, GED preparation and OSSD credit courses.
The Native Education Centre also provides an orientation and exposure to Native Culture, which enhances oral and cultural preservation and supports those learners who have a desire to learn more about Native “Traditional Teachings”.
