The English Language Centre (ELC) is happy and proud to support the FCC/PLK Language Training Programme.

The ELC helps PolyU students bridge the gap between their experience in tertiary education and their entry into the workplace. Our varied language enhancement provision helps prepare graduates to enter the workplace with the English language skills necessary for them to operate efficiently and effectively.

Our mission, however, extends beyond the campus with our commitment to supporting English language training initiatives in the wider Hong Kong community. In our links with corporate Hong Kong, our skills and expertise are there to help ensure a company’s employees are effective participants in the global workplace.
