CCEL BlogThis is my school!

Family Day is set to take effect in B.C. on February 19, 2013, about two months before the next provincial election.

B.C. will join three other provinces–Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario–that celebrate Family Day on the third Monday of February.

August 2012 will mark the start of a new partnership between CESUES and Canadian College of English Language. Over the next four years CESUES will use the CCEL SMRT curriculum to deliver English instruction to all new students entering into the university on all of their campuses in the state of Sonora, Mexico.

Over the next four years it is estimated that 10,000 students will have use the SMRT curriculum to improved their English language. This will help build a strong level of confidence amongst the students in using English for work, for conversation and for academic purposes.

The vision Lic.Samuel Espinosa Guillen, the Rector of CESUES, has is for all CESUES graduates to be competent in the use of the English Language when they leave the university and join the workforce. Hence, the formation of this partnership between CESUS and Canadian College of  English Language.  Lic. Ana Sesma of Mundo Posible made this possible because of the close ties she has with CESUES and Canadian College of English Language.

The SMRT curriculum is a proprietary Internet based curriculum developed by the Canadian College of English Language to enable English Teachers to achieve higher pass rates amongst their students.

Pathways too:

CCEL initiated a scholarship program for students who have lost parents, homes, and livelihoods as a result of the tsunami in Japan. The scholarship is for free tuition (courtesy of CCEL) and free accommodation for up to 3 months.  This hope for youth program has proven very successful, thank you to everyone involved.

The song is performed by Watasun, a Vancouver-based duo whose music fuses urban beats with traditional folk sounds. One-time buskers on Vancouver’s Granville Street, singer/songwriter Adam Bailie and percussionist Reid Hendry now record, produce and sell their own albums, taking inspiration from the city’s diversity, vibrancy and unity.
