Launching a New Intensive English Program

Tuesday, May 31, 2:30 PM - 3:30 PM

Intensive English Programs (IEPs) significantly contribute to a university’s capacity for global learning. Creating a new IEP is an enormously difficult but gratifying process. Presenters will share the challenges and lessons learned during each step of the process, ranging from university approval to the arrival of students for the first term.

Learning Objectives:

  • List the steps necessary to create a new IEP.

  • Define the potential challenges of creating a new IEP.

  • Generate best practices for the development of a new or ongoing IEP.
