English Second Language Healthcare Bridge Certificate

The ESL Healthcare Bridge program is designed to move non-native English speaking students further and faster into healthcare training programs. Rather than offer generic English language courses which are disconnected from a student’s area of interest, the Bridge program places English instruction in a specific vocational context to accelerate student learning. The courses were designed to cover the most common areas of difficulty for students who wish to succeed in healthcare training programs. Medical terminology and oral communications are particularly challenging areas for most non-native English speaking students to master.
