LINC 1 Half Time (LINC 0601H)

LINC 1 is offered to Permanent Residents of Canada, those with Confirmation of Permanent Resident, a Record of Landing, Notice of Decision from the Refugee Protection Division, or Letter from IRCC. Students study listening, speaking, reading and writing skills at Canadian Language Benchmark 1. The course focuses on the development of language skills for successful participation in community, workplace and school activities. Students gain knowledge about life in Canada and build the confidence to independently access community services and resources. Language skills are developed in a task based and interactive way, making use of ‘real world" resources. The course also encompasses socio-cultural understandings ensuring it is relevant to the lives of the students and situations they may encounter. As LINC is Portfolio based, formative assessments are done weekly with feedback to the student throughout the course.
