Is this the end of academic freedom in EAP?

Absolutely not! The Framework for English Teaching in Higher Education in Israel provides a common language and a “common ruler” to assess the level of language proficiency. The choice of content and methodological approaches is up to you, and should be determined by the goals of your institution and program. By integrating the four skills and selected can-do statements into your existing course, you will be helping your students meet their 21^st century English language needs.
