Looking at the list, the Saskatchewan Distance Learning Corp. (Sask DLC) service offers courses including agricultural production, communications media, financial literacy, hockey skills, power engineering and IT fundamentals.
“The wide array of courses on offer will provide students with new opportunities for learning, which they may not have had previously,” Education Minister Dustin Duncan said.
“Through this enhanced learning experience, all students will have greater flexibility and choice in gaining the knowledge and skills necessary for their future careers, regardless of where they live in Saskatchewan.”
