Committed to excellence in language skill development through innovative and interactive programmes, including the Intensive English Program.
The Intensive English Program (IEP) helps professionals from business, political and humanitarian backgrounds, and other interested groups, advance their English proficiency and acquire functional language skills. It develops fluency and accuracy in writing, reading, listening and speaking through six levels over 21 months (six semesters of three and a half months).
Vision: to be a global leader in a sustainable and effective model of academic excellence in foreign language learning and teaching. Mission: to equip learners with the academic English skills to succeed in post-secondary education and beyond through best practices based on global frameworks.
Entry: students may sit a placement test or start at beginner level without an exam; learners scoring above 90 may skip the next book. Requirements: a file folder, two passport-size photos, a birth certificate or passport, a US$25 registration fee, and a course fee of US$35/month (weekday) or US$50 (weekend).
