Can I buy SOFAD materials without registering in a distance education course? Yes. Different ways are possible. • You can contact an adult education centre of a school board that uses SOFAD learning materials and say that you wish to purchase materials without registering in a course. Prices are set by the centre. • Several bookstores in Québec sell SOFAD materials. If your local bookstore does not carry the materials you are looking for, you can ask the bookstore to purchase them through SOCADIS Inc. • You can also purchase SOFAD materials directly from our distributor.* SOCADIS Inc. 420, rue Stinson Ville Saint-Laurent (Québec) H4N 3L7 Telephone: 514 331-3300 and 1 800 361-2847 Fax: 514 745-3282 and 1 866 803-5422 * If you wish to pick up the materials yourself rather than wait for delivery, please telephone ahead so that we can prepare your order. You can pick up your order from Monday to Friday, between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Note – To find out what learning materials are for sale, see the Catalogues: Didactic Materials section of this site. The posted prices are those charged to the school boards. Increase these prices by 20% and add all applicable taxes to determine the sale price for the general public.

Note also that placement tests can be administered only by adult education centres and distance education centres that provide placement services.
