years. The globalization of enterprises with the
corresponding international commercial traffic has
made the knowledge of more than one language
necessary and fundamental for professionals.
Knowing a second language is also, in some
cases, a necessary requirement for the promotion
and improvement of labor opportunities for
career professionals. In this sense, the higher the
management scale, the greater the demand for
languages, and if a person wants to be promoted to
administrative levels, in many cases, the proficiency
of foreign languages is mandatory.
However, the offers obviously, are not limited to
English. Last year a study conducted by the European
Commission on the effects of knowing foreign
languages in the workplace revealed that companies
consider English to be the most important language
on an international level; although, German, French,
Italian and Spanish are fast becoming more relevant
in the business world.
Since it is normal for many companies to provide
their workers, officials and other personnel with
facilities to learn languages as a key factor towards
productivity, Academia Europea was born 36 years
ago to professionally teach languages in Europe
and Latin America. To this date it has acquired an
excellent reputation; over 17,000 students have
graduated in English, French, Dutch, German and
Spanish, due to the successful method designed
by its Director Ricardo Wauthion 36 years ago. He
developed this training method; training members of
the Peace Corps, with the objective of teaching them
in the least amount of time possible, the languages
from the different countries they were travelling to;
ever since, it has been a very effective method of
language introduction.
Academia Europea has positioned itself as the First
Language Learning Option in each of the Central
American and Caribbean countries where it provides
its services. Its expansion is due to the great
acceptance of “the method”, European standards
that characterizes the Academy and a globalization
that every day requires more communication.
The study program has been designed to teach
English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese,
Mandarin, and Spanish; the chosen language is
adapted to the needs of the student and will allow
them to be proficient in their business activities;
the Academy also has technical programs in the
following areas: Economy, Business, Finance, and
Tourism.
