Abstract
Intensive English Programs have been set up on college and university campuses to help prepare international students who lack the requisite linguistic skills, and often also the cultural knowledge and academic skills, for university study. Beyond English language instruction, these programs often provide testing, orientation, and other kinds of support to international students, in addition to serving as a site where interns and graduate students from academic departments can gain valuable teaching, observational, and research experience. An organization which provides accreditation for English language programs and which has been endorsed by the international association of Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages, Inc. is the Commission on English Language Program Accreditation. Recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education as a national accrediting agency, the CEA offers three types of accreditation; Programmatic, Institutional, and General.Keywords: academic skills; cultural knowledge; English Language Program Accreditation; English language programs; international students; U.S. Secretary of Education
