BVC cuts language instruction program for newcomers to Canada

Bow Valley College will eliminate its Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC) program, starting this April. The program provides English-language reading and writing training for daily life and work. BVC is one of several other institutions to make cuts to these types of programs, after the Government of Canada significantly reduced funding for LINC before the winter break. A statement from BVC indicated that while it is still determining the full scope of the changes, this cut will impact employee positions.
