Alberta Chinese Cultural Education Society (ACCES) was registered in 2001 as a non profit organization. It was approved by Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) as a charitable organization in 2021. For the past 23 years, ACCES has been providing services to more than 6000 members in the community. In 2023, the Alberta Education approved our application for being a funded and accredited Alberta Heritage Language School, which will provide online and in-person Chinese Language and Culture credited courses to Grade 10-12 in Alberta.
