Other program services. In addition to the programs previousy listed, ccl also offers numerous additional face to face and virtual educational programs to the public, private and nonprofit sectors. Ccl strives to make our programs available to all sectors of society. Each year, ccl identifies segments of the population who do not have the resources to afford ccl programs without some financial assistance. Those audiences are generally individuals from the nonprofit or education sectors, youth or individuals from disadvantaged regions and developing countries. Ccl then provides financial assistance to these audiences through scholarships, third-party funding or below market priced fees.
