**FACULTY OF SKILLS AND FOUNDATIONAL LEARNING**

At NorQuest College, the LINC program fulfills the “we’ll meet you where you’re at” commitment to students by offering a wide variety of programming and scheduling options as well as delivery modes that meet the varied needs of our diverse student population.

The program offers a variety of language, settlement, essential skills training and support services in a range of modalities to help students develop language proficiency, settlement knowledge, and essential skills.

Our program also offers students the opportunity to connect with their community through a variety of opportunities including community partner presentations, resource fairs, community connections and special field trips. Another major focus from our program is building relationships with Indigenous community groups and allowing students to experience and learn about Truth and Reconciliation, Indigenous culture and ways of knowing. These activities help develop leadership skills, build self-confidence, resilience, sense of community and conversational English as well as decrease loneliness and help students meet new friends, in addition to support services such as digital navigation for students struggling with technology and basic computer skills and flexible scheduling options and delivery modes all facilitate LINC learners’ access to a high caliber learning experience.

Further, services for students with disabilities are available. The LINC ASL class provides language and settlement training with focus on expressive and receptive skills, followed by English reading and writing skills, with topics ranging from basic settlement to those of special interest to deaf and hearing-impaired students. Outside of the LINC American Sign Language class, blind/low-vision students are supported to allow them to access/remain in school.
