BIG NEWS
Starting with the 2010-2011 school year, CALC is starting a NEW procedure for collecting book deposits. Here's the scoop:
1. No more vouchers! (Yay! no more long lineups!)
2. Once a year you pay a $100 textbook/learning material deposit. Don't worry; this deposit is refundable — you get it back when you leave the school.
3. Everyone pays the $100. It doesn't matter how many courses you take (one, two, or three). Every CALC students pays the deposit.
4. ALL returning students MUST pay the deposit on or before August 31st, 2010.
5. You will not get your timetable until you pay. No money means no timetable and no classes. Failure to pay will result in your being withdrawn from classes.
P.S. Remember that in addition to the book deposit, you will also need to budget for the annual registration fee of $50.
And that's the end of the BIG NEWS
City Adult Learning Centre offers a variety of credit courses for adult students wishing to complete their Ontario Secondary School Diploma, prepare for post-secondary education, or gain job related training.
This is an excellent way to learn with other mature students who have the same goals and aspirations as yourself. Network with new friends as you prepare for a successful vocation after graduation.
Through assessment of prior education and current skills and discussion of career goals an educational plan is prepared which meets the individual student's needs.
Typically the decision to return to school is difficult one for adult learners who face a variety of barriers. Each adult school has a supportive staff, flexible services and programs designed to help adult learners overcome these barriers and succeed.
For the 10/11 school year, the definition of an "Adult" student is those who are or will be turning 21 in the current calendar year. For Quad 1 & 2 you must be born in 1989 or earlier; for Quad 3 & 4, 1990 or earlier. If you are not an adult under this definition then your "home" school or an optional attendance school should accept you. If you do not meet the age criteria and cannot find a suitable alternative, contact the TDSB Placement Centre at (416) 393-9300.
