The Columbia Learning Society
To help individuals, Columbia College established an independent and separate non-profit society called The Columbia Learning Society. The Society’s principle aim is to provide bursaries to children and adults who wish to attend workshops, seminars, courses or programs at Columbia College.
The Columbia Learning Society has been active since September 2002. To date, over 4500 adults and children utilized bursaries to attend classes, workshops or tutoring sessions at Columbia College.
Free Saturday Workshops
Each Saturday (excluding holiday weekends) from October through March, The Columbia Learning Society offers free workshops from 9:30 am – 12:30 pm. These workshops cover a variety of topics such as computer applications training, communication skills, study skills, and other topics. Please click on the event links below to register.
