Description / Program Overview
English communication is indispensable in Canada. Whether for integrating into the labour market or for community life, you need to use English. Collège McGill offers English courses from beginner to advanced, certified and provided by EMSB, designed to strengthen language skills through training reflecting social, professional and interpersonal situations in real-life experience, enabling adult learners over time to communicate independently in English with local people.
