English for Academic Purpose (EAP) courses are English language development classes designed specifically for English Language Learners and run side-by-side with core content courses. In EAP, students receive direct language instruction to aid them in acquiring content knowledge, in producing and understanding texts in various genres within the content area and in becoming proficient in the areas of the five college competencies. Students only take an EAP class if they are enrolled in the matching SOL or core class and it is determined that they need additional support based on examining a body of evidence (for example, school history, grades, teacher recommendation, ACCESS for ELLs level, SRI score and writing samples).

EAP Technology does not support a matching SOL course. This is a hands-on course for beginning English Language Learners with limited experience with computer programs.
