The Career English Program consists of:

The primary goal of the Career English Program is to improve the student’s English skills in the work setting. Placement in specific companies or fields is not guaranteed.
Students complete a minimum of 6 weeks of any course before being placed in American company for 6 to 8 weeks. Career English students focus solely on their host company after 6 weeks of classes have been completed.

Students select and enroll in an English program that best fits their language needs. For the first 6 weeks, students attend courses (Monday-Friday, 9 am to 12:40 pm) and build the speaking, writing, and communication skills necessary to prepare them for a professional work setting.
During this time, students communicate frequently with the Career English Coordinator and also attend interviews in order to secure placement in an American business.
Weeks 7 – 12, 13, or 14 weeks: Placement in an American company
