Academic Upgrading

This is a flexible, personalized, and supportive program for English-speaking adults (18+) who need to upgrade their reading, writing, math, science and computer skills. The program prepares students for post-secondary study, further skills training, apprenticeship or employment.

Placement tests help to determine the level and courses of study for each student. The length of time it takes to complete an academic upgrading program depends on the level of skills and knowledge the student needs to achieve his/her academic or employment goals.

This program is well-suited for students who are:

  • Ready to set goals for the future
  • Committed to working hard
  • Eager to demonstrate progress
  • Prepared to attend regularly
  • Able to work independently
