Greetings!
What a crazy, busy year this has been! I can't believe it's already April. Because we are the largest Fast ForWord provider in Canada, late last year Scientific Learning reclassified us as an International VAR. We are now part of a group comprised of individuals who represent Scientific Learning products in over 40 other countries. In January, Ross and I went to Shanghai, China for the annual VAR Conference where we learned so much about how Fast ForWord and Reading Assistant are used to improve learning, reading, and English language development. With what we learned in China about English language learning, we decided to expand with a new office in Richmond. We take possession on May 1 and will begin interviewing potential employees the following week. We will have summer programs in both Langley and Richmond. More information will follow in the next few weeks. www.accomplished.ca

 What's My Name Contest
Congratulations go to Lexi Russell for coming up with the name Sebastian for our new monster. Lexi received a $100 Chapters gift card. Thanks to everyone who submitted names. The creativity and thoughtfulness that went into some of them was pretty amazing. It was a difficult decision but Ross and I kept coming back to Sebastian and it just feels right. |
