We’re here to help you explore, create, discover, and learn.

Metro Continuing Education can trace its origins to the night school for adults offered by Edmonton Public Schools in 1891. We’ve grown and changed over the years, adding new programs to better serve Edmonton’s appetite for lifelong learning. Today, Metro offers courses and programs for people of all ages with our four program areas:

Elementary & Junior High

We provide elementary and junior high students with opportunities to explore new interests, prepare for exams, and develop better study habits. Our programs include: academic-focused or enrichment-focused summer camps, out-of-school programs, and study skills programs.

High School

Metro administers summer school for all of Edmonton Public Schools. Our summer school classes are attended by current high school students as well as adult students. Our Fall/Winter/Spring high school credit classes are an opportunity for current students to get ahead or for adult students to upgrade or finish their diplomas in a mature, college-like environment. We also provide online tutoring sessions.

Personal & Professional Enrichment

Our personal and professional enrichment (adult continuing education) classes are taught by passionate, skilled instructors. Discover a new hobby, learn a new skill, or hit professional business goals. Our class offerings are constantly changing, with a new term of interesting, diverse classes launched every quarter.

ESL & LINC Language Programs

Our English Language Institute offers two major programs to teach English as a second language. LINC (Language Instructors for Newcomers) is a federally-funded program that helps new permanent residents develop the language skills they need to make Canada their home. The provincially-funded ESL (English as a Second Language) program is an intensive option for those looking to succeed when entering the Albertan workforce.
