Questions
Frequently asked questions
Who can write the CAEC?▼
The CAEC is for adults without a high school diploma. In Alberta you need to be at least 18 and out of school for at least 10 months. We can check your readiness before you book.
Reading or math is hard for me. Where do I start?▼
Start with our Adult Literacy & Numeracy class. We go at your pace in a small, friendly group, and you can move into CAEC prep or job training when you're ready.
I've never used a computer much. Is there a class for me?▼
Yes. Our pre-basic computer class starts with the keyboard and mouse, then email and online job search. No experience needed.
Can my classes be paid for by WCB, an insurer or an agency?▼
If you are a WCB client or sponsored by an insurer or agency, ask your case manager to refer you to Vteach. We will send them an assessment and a plan.
I finished free LINC classes. What's next?▼
Our Advanced English (CLB 5-8) class picks up where beginner classes stop and prepares you for IELTS.
Do you offer online classes?▼
Yes. Most programs run in person at our South Edmonton centre or online.
