Newell Further Education Council

Newell Further Education Council is one of 83 Adult Learning Councils in Alberta funded, in part, by Alberta Learning - Community Programs. We are a no-profit organization administered by a board of volunteers and a coordinator who is a paid employee. Community Adult Learning Councils address the part-time, non-credit learning needs of adults within specified geographic boundaries. Our program goals are: 1) To improve the accessibility of learning opportunities, especially for those individuals with special needs or barriers to learning. 2) To provide opportunities for Albertans to acquire important foundational skills such as literacy and English as a Second Language. 3) To address education, training and learning gaps in Alberta's communities. 4) To mobilize community volunteers and other resources in support of learning.
