WISDOM Home Schooling helps parents fulfill the Alberta Home Education notification requirement. WISDOM accepts home schooling families from anywhere in the province of Alberta, Canada. We were established for the sole purpose of administrating traditional home schooling, giving parents utmost control over what is taught to their children, as well as how and when it is taught. 
All decisions and policies are developed with the intent of supporting parents as they educate their children.
Because the members of our board of directors, our facilitating team, and our Parent Advisory Council are home schooling parents, all board decisions reflect this insight and commitment.

The Best Resource is You
Article by Paul van den Bosch
"What is the best resource for …?”
If you are a home schooling parent, you have asked that question about many topics. What is the best resource for teaching my kids to read? What is the best math resource? What is a good parenting resource?
When we started home schooling, we all asked those questions to anybody and everybody who had been home schooling longer than we had, or was older and wiser, or who just might know the secret to doing this correctly. The longer we home school, the more we get asked those questions. That doesn’t mean we know it all, nor does it mean we shouldn’t keep asking those questions ourselves (since learning is a lifelong journey, after all). What it does mean is that we know more than we think we do. We may look to “experts” and other parents to help us, but the thing to keep in mind is this: if you are a home schooling parent, the best resource is you.

Feel free to call any of us or fire off an email, but you might find the answer to your query on this site! Check out our Frequently Asked Questions section for a great deal of very useful information. If you would like to see more questions and answers added to that section, please let us know. Be sure to take a look at the Calendar at left to keep up to date on deadlines events. We list events put on by WISDOM, as well as any other home schooler-oriented events that we are made aware of.
