familiarity with social norms within bicultural settings as preferred—even required—job
qualifications.
The Professional Certificate in Spanish is

should have developed both the language skills
and cultural understanding to communicate
within a Spanish-speaking environment. The
program aims to provide diverse offerings to
accommodate the variety of reasons people
want to learn Spanish, whether they want to
be able to communicate in another culture, to
increase professional opportunities, to gain a
new skill and expertise, or to better understand
their own heritage.
Participants have the opportunity to further
reinforce their language and cultural learning experience through pre-approved language
immersion programs in Mexico. The academic
credit earned in these programs can be applied
to the certificate as elective credit.

courses designed to keep you on track and
