Missionary Families
NorthStar Academy-Canada is specifically designed around the needs of missionary and humanitarian aid worker families.
We offer the following features to meet these needs:
- Courses are designed to work on five-year-old computer equipment and software.
- Internet connection time is kept to a minimum through compressed files sent as email attachments.
- Students keep in touch with their home country and other “third culture kids” around the world.
- Asynchronous (not real time) delivery of courses allows for flexibility in working around local holidays and disrupted schedules due to moving and traveling.
- For students whose parents are ordinarily residents of Alberta, government funding significantly reduces the fees.
