Keys to Success is the first set of national quality standards dedicated to helping student nutrition programs achieve the best possible nutrition programming for our children. Keys to Success provides information, resources, tools and helpful tips to ensure the highest quality standards in child nutrition programs, and allows programs to move at their own pace. To date, there are thousands of nutrition programs across Canada registered and working online through Keys to Success.

Our Keys to Success program is housed on Breakfast for Learning’s Online Club – an interactive online community for parents, teachers, volunteers and child nutrition workers to connect and learn more about child nutrition programming. The Online Club provides learning tools, a bulletin board and kid-cool activities to help support child nutrition programs and Keys to Success.
