Who are we?
The EAP Consortium includes participants from the Florida Community College & State College System. Our goal is to support EAP programs throughout the state by enhancing communication among EAP faculty and administrators and by addressing articulation concerns.
What is our mission?
The mission of the EAP Consortium is to afford practitioners and administrators a venue for collaboration and to provide leadership and advocacy in statewide EAP issues.
What is our purpose?
The Consortium was created to align Florida EAP programs including placement, curricula, and assessment.
What is EAP?
EAP stands for English for Academic Purposes. EAP programs provide second language instruction for non-native speakers of English who intend to earn associate or bachelors degrees in Florida colleges. Although our students come from a variety of backgrounds, they are united in their desire to learn academic English in order to succeed with their higher education and career goals.
Upcoming Meetings:
October 23, 2015 – Seminole State College, Heathrow Campus, (8:30-3:00PM), Room H-138
