Community initiatives

We collaborate with Alberta’s remote communities to promote distance and science education.

Learning Communities Project (LCP)

The LCP creates accessible learning opportunities and promotes sustainable skills to support Alberta’s rural and remote communities. Through the LCP, communities take charge of their educational and professional journeys with the support and resources of Learning Communities.
