Our Learning Process

Our small-sized classes allow one-on-one interactions with your instructors and promote sharing your ideas and feedback. At PACE through Algoma, we encourage learning with and from each other in line with the Anishinaabe tradition, along with our mission and values.

Learn About Available Housing Opportunities

Algoma's PACE programs run across all three of our campuses in Brampton, Sault Ste. Marie, and Timmins. Your choice of housing opportunities will depend on the location of your education program and availability.

Each of our campuses offers a unique and different experience with dynamic urban-style living in Brampton, social and relaxed vibes in Sault Ste. Marie, and a northern perspective in Timmins. On-campus residence at Algoma is available at Sault Ste. Marie only. For our other campuses, Algoma's lifelong learners can consider off-campus housing options.

It is strongly recommended to secure residence in advance, especially for international learners. For more information about on-campus and off-campus residences please check our Housing Page.
