LINC Levels and Canadian Language Benchmarks

The Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada (LINC) program is funded by the Department of Citizenship and Immigration Canada.

Citizenship and Immigration Canada, Ontario Region has also developed the LINC 1-4 and 5-7 Curriculum Guidelines for use in LINC and other programs intended for adult immigrants. These curriculum guidelines are consistent with the Canadian Language Benchmarks. Please click here for further information about the LINC Curriculum Guidelines.
