A Different School Concept
Academy of Learning is an international career college that specializes in business skills and computer training for adult students. What sets this college apart from others, is its specialized programs designed to minimize the disparity between formal education and the true demands and expectations of the work place. Further, Academy of Learning applies a philosophy called the Integrated Learning System, which takes into account the variety of ways in which individuals learn and allows a degree of flexibility to give all learners the opportunity to succeed in their educational endeavours.

The Learning Curve
The Academy of Learning provides education and training in business, computer technology and healthcare, offering certificates and diplomas in over 30 programs. Since its inception in 1987, Academy of Learning has significantly expanded its programs and grown to more than 100 franchises worldwide. In Canada, the college is operating in eight provinces as well as the two territories. In terms of credentials, the Alberta Learning Academy has an excellent reputation and has been awarded the Consumers’ Choice Award for Business Schools, for five consecutive years.

Student Focussed Learning
At Academy of Learning, the onus is on learners to take charge of their education and set priorities that fit with their individual life circumstances and goals. To that end, learners are encouraged to work at their own pace, set their own schedules and design the outcome they wish to achieve. In Calgary, the Academy has three campuses serving the northwest, northeast and south areas of the city.
