I have a couple of questions about homeschooling in Alberta. Can secondary school students be home-schooled in Cold Lake, Alberta? Are you satisfied with the Lernsys program?

Hello, Yes, kids of all ages are legally permitted to be home-schooled in Cold Lake, Alberta. However, make sure you observe the prerequisites set out to homeschool your child in Cold Lake, Alberta. Thankfully, homeschooling in Alberta has been considered one of the easiest and most straightforward provinces to homeschool in Canada as it requires virtually no government regulations. Parents homeschooling in Alberta are free to choose most or all of the elements they deem fit for their student to learn. A parent or guardian teaching their student at home is not forced by law to be certified as a teacher in Alberta. Yet, studying with curriculum developed by a certified teacher is highly recommended even if the certified educator is not an Alberta teacher. In Alberta, the homeschool laws and regulations are few compared to other provinces which might require some type of evaluation or annual testing. Alberta allows 2 different options for homeschooling in Alberta:

Home education program supervised by school authority (funded)

Home education program not supervised by school authority (notification only, non-funded)

You should probably take a look at this page which lists specific guidance regarding what is required to homeschool in Alberta:
