A Bit of History
• In 1986, the Ontario Government created an initiative to provide residents of Northern Ontario improved access to college, university and high school courses
• Known as Contact North, it opened a variety of centres where residents could take literacy, high school, or college or university courses directly in their local community.
• Today Contact North has 90 centres serves over 5,000 students annually in Northern Ontario and delivers close to 14,000 course registrations for its education and training partners
• Based on the success of Contact North, the Ontario Government funded the expansion of this service to residents of Eastern, Central and Western Ontario called elearnnetwork.ca
• As a publicly funded organization, we opened in 2007 and now have 18 Centres across Ontario.
