This Ontario College Certificate program is intended for students interested in improving their English language skills in order to pursue a diploma program at the post- secondary level at Sault College. This program is for students who don`t currently meet the College`s English Proficiency requirements, but who have some English proficiency (i.e., minimum average 4.5 IELTS or equivalent).

This program would allow students to familiarize themselves with Sault College`s campus and college life, upgrade their English skills by practicing oral and written communication skills, and understand the college`s expectations regarding academic integrity, managing course work and navigating college life.

Emphasis is on building academic oral and written communication skills. Students will learn through interactive classroom and community-based activities.
