Are you a past MDLC student?

Mountain District Learning Centre or MDLC (formerly Mountain District Women’s Co-operative – MDWC) has undergone some changes lately. While still delivering quality education and training, in a supportive environment with small class numbers, we now have a new name, new courses, a new website and some new staff.

When we ask people how they found out about MDLC, the most popular response is “word of mouth”, so, if you enjoyed your time at MDLC we would love to hear about it and we would like you to recommend us to your friends.

If you have a story to tell about where your studies or participation have led you, we would love to hear about it. You can write to us, email, or telephone and speak to our friendly staff. Also, if you have a particular learning interest that you would like us to develop into a course, please let us know.
