dbo:abstract
  • An English language institute (ELIs) or English language centre (ELCs) is a department within a college or university in English-speaking countries that aims to develop students' English language skills for a variety of purposes. In countries like New Zealand, ELCs accounted for one-fifth of the $1.1 billion (NZ) in revenue (2001). Many schools began their department to provide English for Academic Purposes (EAP) programming to support the needs of the respective schools to meet the school's necessary English language requirements for admission and increase international student enrolment to include students with English as a second or foreign language. Steadily, many ELIs have grown in recent years to support institutional missions for increased efforts for internationalization as well as revenue generation. (en)
