The Learning Source – the latest enterprise of The Community Opportunity and Innovation Network (COIN) - was launched in September, 2008 to ensure that the residents of Peterborough County had access to a wide range of affordable leisure, fitness and skill-enhancing learning opportunities.

Based on our philosophy that healthy communities are learning communities, C.O.I.N. and The Learning Source are committed to making a contribution to a healthier and more active community and stronger social networks as people unite together around common learning interests.

COIN is grateful for the support of the Trillium Foundation and other Learning Source sponsors and supporters. This year, The Learning Source is focusing its efforts on filling the learning gaps in Peterborough and surrounding communities with a particular emphasis on green living programs.

The Learning Source is dedicated to empowering participants to learn new things, build upon existing skills, make new friendships and foster a more positive local community. Working with local businesses and organizations as partners, The Learning Source strives to be a catalyst for community information, participation and action.
