Learner Assistance Available at ROVLN
Achieve your goals in education, training, independence, and employment with our free programs throughout the Renfrew, Lanark, Ottawa and Prescott-Russell regions.
Trained, talented and experienced staff are ready to assist you in a safe, friendly and adult-learner environment.
Learn at your own pace and with real hands-on materials that assist you in reaching your goals.
ADULT
We all have skills we could learn and strengthen. Whether you want to learn in a classroom environment, small group or one-on-one, our programs cater to adults and how adults learn best. We use real-life resources and authentic materials to prepare you for employment, education, apprenticeship, or independence.
YOUTH/CHILDREN
Although our programs serve adults, we partner with programs that support and promote child and youth literacy. It is vital that children gain the skills and a love of learning at an early age to adapt and thrive in our technological world.
FAMILY
Family Literacy is about building stronger relationships between parents and children. It is about getting parents involved in their children’s education and about building stronger families and healthier communities.
