What's New in ACGC
The ACGC “Vibe” site has been revamped and is much easier to navigate. Click here to access the Contenus en orientation scolaire et professionnelle (COSP) site.
Firstly, you will have to create an account, which is free and simple to create. Unfortunately, at the time of this writing (May 2024), only the Student Booklet is available in English for the Learning Situations. This may change once the ministry policies on the new language laws are implemented (~October 2024).
Meanwhile, the LEARN site will be hosting the ACGC documents in English that were previously on Vibe. Until that task is completed, please contact your school board’s GOAL consultant if you require documents that are not yet available on LEARN.
For those unfamiliar with the ACGC, a video in English is now available on the MEQ YouTube page, entitled, Introduction to Academic and Career Guidance Content (ACGC).
If you have questions about ACGC or GOAL, contact your school board’s GOAL consultant.
