Spark University

Spark University We love providing care for people. We do it because we want to make a real difference. That’s why we built Spark University: a learning community of caregivers

But being a caregiver can sometimes be isolating, discouraging, and tiring.

Our next session of Ontario Learn courses are set to begin in a few weeks and registration is NOW OPEN! 🥳

These are courses that our very own experts have created for our community. We saw a gap with no caregiving courses available, so we set out to create content. Here we are a few short years later, partnered with Canadore College and Ontario Learn. So far, we've taught these courses to over 200 students and counting and its something we are incredibly proud of!

Each course is unique in its material, but they are similar in style:
- Online, learn at your own pace.
- Each course is about 30hrs of learning that must be completed between mid January-April 2025
- Each course has discussion questions, a few quizzes, an assignments, and a final exam
- Each course, if successful, will grant you Ontario College Credits (!!!!)
- All course is moderated by an professional with years of experience!

As mentioned, each course will grant you ONTARIO COLLEGE CREDITS! This is absolutely unreal, especially for those if you are still attending college.

Cost: FREE (valued at $335 each)
