The program has a highly qualified teaching body of approximately 150 local and international instructors. Students registered to Bilkent University, based on their performance on the school’s in-house proficiency test called the Proficiency in Academic English (PAE), either start their degree programs or are placed in one of the five levels in the English Language Preparatory Program. Students may study in the program for up to two academic years. Through a learner-centered approach to teaching, the program equips students with English language and academic skills for them to be able to use their knowledge effectively in all aspects of life.

The English Language Preparatory Program provides instructors with a professional and stimulating place to work. Early career instructors joining the program are supported through a structured in-service training course. The program has also been running the Cambridge English Delta courses since 1992 (previously known as DOTE and DTEFLA) and the course is offered to instructors on scholarship.
