| INTRODUCTION
                   The Learning Clinic is a private practice that I
                  established in January 2007. I offer a number of services that
                  fall under the umbrella of education, training and career
                  development and will be of particular interest and use to
                  students, educators, parents, grandparents and members of the
                  general public. As well, I have a number of services that
                  appeal to business leaders, professionals and managers of
                  public and private institutions.  
                  I have a number of very specific goals and objectives which
                  I would like to achieve through The Learning Clinic. 
                  
                    - I would like to have this web site become recognized as a centralized location which is
                  devoted entirely to information, resources and appropriate
                  links to other sites pertaining to education, training and
                  career development. It can best be described as a combination
                  "virtual shopping centre" and "reference
                  library" rolled into one. 
 
                     
                    - The site will contain relevant
                  reference links to educational material as well as articles,
                  editorials and commentaries that will inspire, motivate, and
                  inform. The publication will also provide insight into major
                  issues and trends that are influencing the field of education
                  and career development today and which will have an impact
                  will into the future.
 
                     
                    - It is my intention to
                      create more
                  awareness of businesses, professionals, and institutions that
                  provide goods and/or services which may be useful in helping
                  students and parents achieve their education and career
                  development goals. 
 
                       
                    - My ultimate goal is to
                      create a centre which will be of use to classroom teachers
                      in the delivery of their curriculum from elementary
                      through to post-secondary levels.
 
                   
                  Whereas my practice has
                  been established in the City of Greater Sudbury, there are a
                  number of services that I will be able to provide to local
                  residents, including:
