CERTIFICATE IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE (LEVEL 2)
The purpose of this programme is to equip learners who have an English level comparable to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) A2 with English language and communication skills at a level comparable to CEFR high A2 to low B1 (i.e., basic to intermediate level). Learners will be supported as they focus on developing their written and oral English skills.
The language skills will help learners to use and understand the English language in everyday situations, and help learners feel comfortable participating in an English language environment in general. These skills will provide graduates with the opportunity to pursue further educational pathways, and/or be eligible for employment roles that require simple face-to-face or written English communication.
This programme is designed for learners who are wanting to build skills beyond just the fundamentals of English language studies.
