Nova Scotia College of Early Childhood Education

  • Bridging Program

    ESL links

    During the Fall 2009 Nova Scotia College of Early Childhood Education (NSCECE) entered into a collaborative project with Metropolitan Immigrant Settlement Association and Halifax Immigrant Learning Centre (MISA/HILC) now known as Immigrant Settlement & Integration Services (isis) to support our second language learners.

    Some of the goals of this Bridging Program for early childhood educators include:

    • Increased confidence of ECE staff with issues related to ESL
    • Increased confidence of newcomers
    • Increased knowledge of Canadian workplace values and culture
    • Development of student’s professional network
    • Quicker employment for newcomer ECEs
    • Increased language skills (verbal and writing)
