Adult non-native speakers of English form a significant and increasing proportion of the adult population of the United States. 

Drawing on decades of experience working with educators and practitioners dealing with this growing population, CAL focuses on the language and cultural skills that these adults must develop to succeed in careers, continuing education, and the community. CAL's expertise spans all proficiency levels, from ESL in adult basic education through English for business and professional purposes.
