Foundation Studies
Foundation Studies in Anthroposophy is for anyone seeking deeper meaning in education, in work, in life. Begin in person, online, or at your own pace.
Not a belief system. A way of knowing.
Anthroposophy, Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual science, is a path of self-development grounded in clear thinking, careful observation, and inner refinement. It underlies Waldorf education, biodynamic farming, anthroposophical medicine, and more. Foundation Studies is where most RSCC students begin, and where many find the journey becomes its own destination.
These programs do not require approval under the Ontario Career Colleges Act, 2005.
