Cape Breton University

The goal of the EAP program is to prepare students to read, write, speak and listen to English well enough to succeed in university. During the program, students practice academic and language activities that they will encounter during their university studies. Activities include viewing and discussing videotaped lectures, listening and note-taking, practicing academic reading and writing and completing various university examinations. Students will also build critical thinking and research skills and participate in a number of discussions and seminars. Students in the EAP Program have the opportunity to experience university life through peer-to-peer visits. Organized by ICEAP and the CBU Students' Union, the visits give ICEAP students a chance to meet current CBU students making the transition to CBU an easy one. ICEAP students are also encouraged to participate in the many social and cultural activities offered by CBU.
