Yes, we offer both.  You are able to choose if you would like to take your courses in-class or online through e-learning.  Both in-class and e-learning are offered in 6-week terms and are directly supported by a teacher.
 
What is the difference between the English Language Instruction (ESL) program and Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC)?

Both ESL and LINC are English Language Training Programs for immigrants wanting to learn to understand, speak, and write English. The ESL program is offered at both Loyola Kingston and Belleville. The LINC program is offered at Loyola Belleville and is available to immigrants who are permanent residents and do not have their Canadian citizenship, yet.  As well, refugees may qualify for the LINC program. The LINC program is funded by the federal government, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC).  If you qualify for the LINC program, you may be eligible for assistance for the cost of childcare and transportation. To find out if you qualify for the LINC program, please call Loyola Belleville at 613-966-9210 for more information.
