The Common Core Basic Education Program consists of 15 programs of study in the first phase of adult general education. These programs of study are made up of courses spanning three levels: Literacy, Presecondary and Secondary Cycle One.
This instructional service is designed for adults experiencing adjustment difficulties of a psychological, intellectual, social or physical nature.
The program of study associated with this service is designed to help adult learners identify a social participation project and to rapidly increase their level of autonomy as they carry out their project. The success of the adult learners depends on their own commitment and that of staff members and partners who support the implementation of a realistic project and the ability of the adult learners to use their learning in their own immediate environment.
This instructional service is a response to the need to diversify the training offered to adults who wish to enter the labour market, remain employed or pursue an education.
It enables adults to create a career plan, development sociovocational skills, acquire professional competencies, and learn to plan and organize their job search.

This test offers you the opportunity to achieve a Secondary School Equivalency Certificate. This will allow you to demonstrate the skills, knowledge, competencies and abilities you have acquired.
Another way to get your high school equivalency is by registering to take General Educational Development (GED) tests. GED tests cover five different subject areas. A person must pass all five tests to get their GED certification (certified Canadian high school equivalency).
SARCA services are designed for adult learners, who can use them before they enrol in adult education or during their general education or vocational training. They are designed to assist adult learners in choosing and implementing a learning plan in line with their personal and career goals and to provide the assistance they need throughout the entire process.
