Intercultural Leadership and Language Program (ILLP)

Intercultural Leadership and Language Program (ILLP) - TIM Centre

Developing English proficiency and intercultural intelligence in a Canadian context.

The Intercultural Leadership and Language Program (ILLP) is designed for high school or university/college students outside of Canada who wish to grow in both English proficiency and intercultural understanding while developing the skills and character of a global leader.

This program is offered jointly with Upper Madison College.  Through a combination of academic study, experiential learning, and community engagement, participants will explore what it means to lead with intercultural fluency. The curriculum integrates language learning with modules on intercultural communication, Canadian society, and leadership development.

Students learn not only how to communicate effectively in English, but also how to build meaningful relationships and navigate cultural differences with empathy and insight. Learning takes place both in the classroom and through immersion experiences in Canadian communities, fostering genuine intercultural connection and personal growth.

Held at Tyndale University, a Christian university and seminary, the program approach to learning and leadership is shaped by Christian principles.

This program is affiliated with Upper Madison College.
