Extended Learning Opportunities (ELOs)

Extended Learning Opportunities (ELOs) are hands-on, credit-bearing courses outside of the traditional classroom with an emphasis on community-based career exploration. They are highly personalized opportunities for students to engage in learning in ways that make sense for them and connect their learning to everyday life in meaningful ways. ELOs are a unique mix of academic instruction and assignments, such as papers and presentations, and combine experiential learning components like project-based learning, internships, and job shadows.

Healthy Acadia partners with Jobs for Maine Graduates (JMG) and local schools to design, implement, and expand ELO offerings in our region. To learn more visit https://jmg.org/extended-learning-opportunities or contact Corrie Hunkler at Corrie.Hunkler@HealthyAcadia.org or 207-255-3741.
