I took calculus, physics, advanced functions and chemistry with TVO ILC and I’ve had nothing but a positive experience. Quick and fair marking and easy-to-follow course materials. Now I can become an engineer.

Ali

Student

I became critically ill… TVO ILC made it possible for me to work on my education from my home, when I felt well enough. I completed all my high school credits through ILC and graduated with my friends. Today, I’m healthy, have completed college, and work full-time as an Early Childhood Educator.

10 years after dropping out of high school, I earned my grade 12 diploma through TVO ILC. I went on to graduate from college and realize my dream of becoming a Personal Support Worker! Now that I know what I am capable of, I’ve decided to study nursing.
