About Us

The Manitoba Rural Learning Consortium (mRLC) was established in 2011 to support rural school divisions in addressing the unique challenges facing rural education. In 2022 the mRLC expanded its mandate to include northern school divisions. The mRLC works across and within members divisions with a focus on consultation, coaching and collaboration. School divisions commit to the mRLC by purchasing a membership and engaging in networks offered through the Program of Services.
