EAST COAST LANGUAGE COLLEGE
About ECLC
ECLC opened its doors in 1998 and started with humble beginnings – three classrooms, three teachers, and three students! We grew by word of mouth because students loved the personal attention they received and the high academic quality of the classes. Students trust us – we deliver what we say we will – and they know they will be treated with respect and kindness. Our staff members all adhere to the same important values because they are also passionate about the support and success of our students.
In 2016, ECLC was approved by the province of Nova Scotia to become a Private Career College, and East Coast International College (ECIC) was born. The college currently offers the ACE TESOL teacher training certificate and a Continuing Care Assistant (CCA) certificate program.
Donna-Lynn Leblanc and Sheila Nunn were the owners of ECLC until 2021, when we became a subsidiary of the Oxford International Education Group (OIEG). This was a positive move for our school and college as it allowed us to become part of a bigger team, with schools in Toronto, Vancouver, New York, and San Diego. Sheila remains as part of the ECLC/OIEG team and works closely with the new School Director, and both are supported by an amazing team of administrators, instructors, homestay families, and other partners. These relationships are the key to ECLC’s success and its reputation as a well-respected leader in the language training community.

In addition, EP helps parents learn the everyday English they need to thrive in Canadian society. Each level in EP takes 15 weeks to complete and includes 20 hours of class time per week. Every Friday, students take part in a workshop which focuses on naturally and accurately using English in various situations students may encounter in Canada. Using different themes, the students will be given opportunities to practice the new language through role plays, discussions, presentations and outings.

This course is designed to prepare students to succeed in the world of international business and the workplace by helping them develop their professional English communication skills.
