The various levels ensure that anyone wanting to learn English has an opportunity to do so, regardless of prior education or experience. Besides ELL classes, CRAEC provides Citizenship classes, Computer Literacy classes, Math Tutorial, and Job Readiness classes. Math and numeracy are needed both for everyday activities and employment.
