Foundational Programs

Foundational programs offer adults the opportunity to acquire skills necessary to competently and independently function in a modern society. Competencies in curriculum areas, such as life skills, mathematics, and communication skills including speaking, reading, writing, and listening are provided, in addition to pre-vocational and academic training.

Regularly scheduled programs are offered by the departments of Adult Academic and Career Preparation (AACP) and Adult Special Education (ASE). Programs are offered at several centres including Kalamalka (Vernon), Kelowna, Penticton, Salmon Arm and Revelstoke. Programs are occasionally offered in Armstrong, Oliver/Osoyoos, and Summerland.

English as a Second Language (ESL) programs are available to domestic and International students and are now being administered by the International Education department.
