With so many companies doing business internationally these days, the need for people who are able to speak more than one language is paramount.

Probably the most widely spoken language in the United States, aside from English, is Spanish. Companies both large and small are in need of people who can speak Spanish, and are constantly searching for qualified employees who can do so.

The Modern Language program at Sheridan College and Gillette College is designed to provide students with a working knowledge of Spanish so they will be able to read and communicate in the language. Students also become familiar with the cultural traditions of the Spanish-speaking people.

The program offers those courses necessary to satisfy the foreign language requirement for the Associate of Arts degree and for the Bachelor of Arts degree at most four-year universities. The program provides the foundation for students who wish to achieve more advanced degrees in foreign languages, who wish to use it at work, or who plan to work in law enforcement, social work, or education.

Credit may be given to students for previous foreign language experience or study.
