JAIMS offers a study option prior to the ICMP:

Increasing Competencies for International Communication (IC²) Program

Prior to the ICMP, the four-week increasing Competencies for International communication (IC²) program is ideal for those who want to develop a greater appreciation for and confidence in their own language style. The IC² program encourages participants to use language skills they already possess and focuses on English as an International Language (EIL) so that participants gain a deeper knowledge of how English is used around the world.

The IC² program is highly interactive; it allows participants to explore Hawaiian culture and learn about American business through challenging learning activities including business interviews, site visits, class discussions, and role plays.

To further enhance their experience, many participants do homestays to gain first-hand experience of American life.

The $3,000 tuition for the IC² does not include travel, living or other expenses incurred by the participant during the program. Admission requirements for the program are the same as for the ICMP.

Note: Non-ICMP participants are welcomed to enroll in the IC² program. Contact JAIMS for more information.
