English as a Second Language
We offer a variety of English as a Second Language (ESL) classes at our Training Centres in Winnipeg and Brandon.

Course Info
Without English, it is hard to communicate outside of the home, at work or to learn about Canadian culture and to become involved in the community.
Classes are open to anyone, but priority is given to UFCW members. If you are located in Brandon, we offer preparation for the Canadian Citizenship Test and free childcare during specified classes.
Our programs are here to help.
