Most attractive offer
As he explains, the structure of long courses of 120 hours is not attractive for today’s society, since the profile of the student body has changed. “We must make a more attractive offer, with shorter studies, even summer courses, training on Saturdays” … This will mean changes in regulations and management of centers, “he said. “We will have to reinvent ourselves and do different training, specific courses for specific uses, such as business English. “, summarized.
EOI virtual
In addition, he added that they have opted to create the official virtual language school, commitment of the last regional government seminar, to offer new language learning spaces. This course was no longer offered in the distance program That’s English at the more advanced levels, although instead a small online modality was taught with 105 positions.
Tuition drop
The general director of Language Policy, Rubén Trenzano, pointed out that they have been detecting the tuition drop During the last five or six years since it has been taking place throughout the Spanish State and in the meetings we have with the Ministry it is monitored. He predicted that this descent will go to more especially with the application of the multilingualism law as more children with advanced levels of English come out. Trenzano recalled that the EOI student It demanded to study English but as in the last two decades it is more present in educational centers, there is less demand of this language, which is a very high percentage of students who attended the EOI.
However, from the Chamber of Commerce they point out that the administrative and commercial profiles with languages are among the most demanded by companies and there is difficulty in covering them. But the improvement of the curriculum is not the only factor by which a language is studied and although for € 90 the EOI allows a complete course to be taken, its offer does not adapt to all profiles and there are more teaching centers.
