English as an Additional Language
The UFCW Training Centre offers a variety of English as an Additional Language (EAL) classes.
There are a significant number of UFCW members whose first language is not English. 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. We can help.
We run EAL classes in Winnipeg, Brandon and Neepawa. All classes begin on Saturday, January 14th and are offered at many different levels so there is sure to be one that meets your need. There is no fee for any of these classes.
Registration for all classes starts Thursday, January 5th.
In Winnipeg: classes run Saturdays and Mondays. Saturday classes run from 9:00 am-12 noon and 12:45 pm – 3:45 pm. Tuesday classes run from 6:00 – 9:00 pm. To register for classes in Winnipeg, please call 775-8329.
