Education Programs

Recognizing that supported education and employment are inseparable components along the career continuum, Potential Place attempts to help members develop the skills and confidence needed to succeed in accomplishing their goals within Calgary's educational community. Peers help tutor members in areas of Math, English and Computers. Potential students are also offered some mentoring and administrative guidance when required. 

Many people affected by a mental illness are interested in work but may not have the educational background or self-confidence to pursue their employment goals immediately. Many have had disrupted educational opportunities during their formative years. These opportunities can be vital to their ability to acquire work beyond many entry-level positions.
