Adult Education Program (AEP)

About this programme

MCC’s Adult Education Program engages students spiritually and intellectually to become role models for those following behind. Through lectures and labs, the program provides solid foundations in the core subjects of English, Mathematics, Sciences, Aboriginal Studies and Cree Language to prepare students to further advance their careers and educations whether in immediate employment, technical school, college or university studies. As adults, students now take ownership and responsibility for their own learning. Personal commitment drives the students to become focused, self-directed seekers of knowledge. Instructors are guides who help the adult students ‘learn to learn’. This truly is where ‘life-long learning’ begins.
