The #FreeLearn Initiative
#FreeLearn Canada promotes the advancement of education to Canadians that represent marginalized groups, including individuals from lower socioeconomic brackets, individuals detached from the workforce, and Canadians that identify as Black, Indigenous or as a Person of Colour [BIPOC], LGBTQI2+, Newcomers, Refugees, Women, racialized and other underrepresented communities to create better representation.
#FreeLearn Canada provides an opportunity to marginalized Canadians by delivering education that will increase employment opportunities. #FreeLearn was created through extensive industry-led research and consultation with professionals that obtained more than 160 years of collective experience in providing educational and career guidance. #FreeLearn is a Federal Registered Not-For-Profit Entity in partnership with The Royal Alberta College (RAC) and key industry stakeholders, NGOs and governmental organizations. These stakeholders have formed ad-hoc volunteer committees consisting of highly skilled professionals representing all stakeholders and industry needs. These committees provided their expertise, identified gaps within various employment sectors, and collaborated to create a solution to fill the needs of their sectors by delivering education, mentorship, job training, and guidance in a non-confrontational, culturally sensitive, inclusive and supportive environment.
