Language Instruction for Newcomers (LINC)
The colleges and institutes listed
below offer the government-funded language training such
as Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC)
funded through the Department of Citizenship and Immigration
Canada. In British Columbia the LINC program is called
“English Services for Adults” (ELSA), and
in Quebec thea “Francisation” program funded
by the Ministère des relations avec les citoyens
et de l’Immigration.
The advantage of taking a LINC, ELSA
or “Francisation” program at a college or
institute is that participants become better positioned
to pursue more language training programs if required
or transfer into career/technical, university transfer
or degree programs offered at the college or institute.
English as a Second Language (ESL) or “Francisations”
instructors at colleges and institutes can refer candidates
to their institution's advising and counselling services.
