Our Programs

"I have seen an absolute improvement in my son's progress since starting at FVDES."  Chilliwack Grade 4

Our online and paper-based programs offer different features and different ways of learning. Online courses are more structured, and feature full-time teacher support and instruction. They also have e-mail access, virtual classrooms and discussion groups. Correspondence (sometimes called paper-based) courses offer greater flexibility and a wide range of course options. You may also take some courses online and others by paper. You make the choice based on your personal needs!

The downloadable ONLINE GUIDEBOOK (PDF) provides detailed course descriptions.
