Secondary Credentialing

As part of our work to move the dial on high-school graduation rates, the Actua Academy is also a secondary credentialing authority that enables Actua to issue secondary credentials to youth participating in applicable Ontario-based programs. These credits are recognized by the Ontario Ministry of Education and count towards the completion of a student's Ontario Secondary School Diploma.
