ÕýÆ·À¶µ¼º½

English Pathway Program

Our English Pathway Program, is a language, academic, and cultural immersion program for students who meet academic requirements at either ÕýÆ·À¶µ¼º½ or the New Brunswick Community College (NBCC), but do not meet the English proficiency requirements.

ÕýÆ·À¶µ¼º½'s English language pathway program makes it easier for students from non-English backgrounds to get ready for post-secondary studies.

The English Pathway Program includes:

  • level-specific English and academic skills classes
  • lessons introducing students to the history, culture, and geography of Atlantic Canada
  • guest speaker series to educate students on services and supports available through ÕýÆ·À¶µ¼º½ and other local organizations
  • career development skills to prepare students for job opportunities

Mode of delivery: online — students attend the program virtually (must have a stable internet connection and a computer with a camera and microphone to participate in live classes).
