Inclusive Post-Secondary Education (IPSE) facilitates opportunities for diverse learners to cultivate their academic and social aspirations, at either the Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà or St. Mary’s University. Students have a distinct voice in their learning outcomes and actively participate in designing their own learning model tailored to their preferences, abilities and interests. Instruction is paced to a student’s unique needs.

We are deeply invested in positive, enduring outcomes for each of our students and alumni, and acknowledge that challenges are best met in a way that promote both independence and resilience. We aspire to create new and innovative ways to address the hard questions. To this end, we provide personalized supports to our students and graduates while building community alliances to ensure long-term success.
