To Learn Online - Free Courses

Added: May 05 2008 - Updated: April 27 2010

What is To Learn Online?

To Learn Online is an online learning web site where students can take professional development and business courses that are self-paced, 100% online, and at no cost!

To Learn Online is operated by the Ontario Association of Community Futures Development Corporations (OACFDC) with support from FedDev Ontario and Industry Canada. The association works in cooperation with professional associations, post secondary institutions, universities and colleges aimed at providing learners greater access to professional development through online learning.

Online learning is ideal for business owners and staff who are interested in expanding their business knowledge, but prefer to study part-time while maintaining their work and family commitments.

To Learn Online offers a wide range of accessible, interesting and practical courses – all of which are available in both official languages. There are over 100 different courses to take; some of the topics currently being offered are marketing, presentation skills, strategic management, tutorials in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint & more.

Please visit the website to view the full course catalogue.

How Do I Get Started?

The free courses can be taken anywhere that has an internet connection (high speed recommended).
