Our classroom, small group and one-to-one learning options, support adults to build their reading, writing, math, computer and essential skills so that they can realize personal goals, further education, apprenticeships and employment. As part of a continuum of services offered through the Nova Scotia School for Adult Learning, the Dartmouth Learning Network’s programs provide a strong foundation and pathway to further education and lifelong learning at home, in the community and at work.
We partner with like-minded community agencies to foster literacy and lifelong learning skills within families. Our vision is that everyone has the skills they need to reach their earning and career goals.
