Independent Study Option
The Independent Study Option (ISO) provides the opportunity and flexibility for both school-age and adult learners to study a wide range of compulsory and optional distance education courses from Grades 1 to 12.
The Independent Study Option (ISO) provides programming for Early and Middle Years students. Grade 1 to 8 students who are attending school or being homeschooled can register for ISO courses.
In the event that you leave the province on a temporary or permanent basis, the Independent Study Option (ISO) also provides the opportunity for continuing the study of Manitoba curriculum en route to receiving a Senior Years graduation diploma.
Adults requiring a more flexible schedule due to other commitments or obligations may opt to study Senior Years courses through the ISO to complete the requirements for either a Senior Years diploma or post-secondary admission.
A complete listing of ISO courses is found in the course description section of Independent Study Option. For further information about the ISO, call 800-465-9915 or email DLITU.

These courses are only available to school-based students.
