Course Framework Embraces Peer to Peer Sharing
The technology leadership course was released in 2015. Since then, several hundred LINC pros have made their way through. But we decided in 2023 the course content needed refreshing. The course is divided into 13 one-week units, each of which will take about 2.5 – 3 hours to complete.
We invite professionals in IRCC or MLITSD-funded language programs like LINC, CLIC or Ontario Adult Language Training to request enrolment.
The course is mentored and delivered online through Avenue.ca. Participants in the course have self-identified as learning technology leaders, and the forum posts they share in the course reflect valuable lessons from their local language training programs. Learn more about the barriers, challenges and opportunities of learning technology innovation.
