LANGUAGES Canada，a new Canadian national organization of public and private language training programs，was started recently to ensure that language training in Canada is of high quality，Canada News Wire has reported．
Canada has developed its language-training programs for over forty years without a comparatively uniform（adj. 一致的；相同的） quality standard before Languages Canada adopted（采用） a complete system of rigorous standards that apply equally to all public and private schools in Canada To qualify（取得资格；具备合格条件），a school is evaluated in a number of categories including curriculum，teacher qualifications，student services，student admissions，marketing，promotion，facilities and administration． The quality standards guarantee that international students who come to Canada to learn English or French can expect to receive a uniform level of excellent instruction．．
So far，a total of 144 language–training programs，public and private，English and French，have met the standards． They will have to re-qualify in three years． About two dozen other schools failed to meet all standards and may be re-evaluated in the future．
Canada’s language training sector accounts for（数量占…） about 15 percent of the market share of global language training business Canada ranks third among destinations for English language training after UK and US． Calum Mackechnie，President of Languages Canada and President of York University’s English Language Institute，says if Canada wants to fully take advantage（利用） of the economic potential（潜力） of its language-training sector，it needs to make sure the world knows what the country has to offer．
