Spanish for Corporations and Organizations
Visual Link Spanish® has been taught at corporations and government organizations since 1995. Click here to see a few of the organizations that have used our course.
We recommend one of two options for administration of the course:
Option #1: Self-study Network (LAN) installed course - The course is installed on the company network and employees can access it to learn at their own pace. Managers can go to an online exam tracking area to see employee progress with online exams.
Option #2: Bilingual employees can become licensed to teach Visual Link Spanish™. This costs $399 and includes training manuals, a certificate upon completion, a set of overhead transparencies or PowerPoint® lessons for instruction in the classroom, and a set of SuperLearning® background music CDs. Once an employee is trained, they can train others to teach the course. Instructor-led Spanish courses are recommended to run twice per week, two hours per session, for 10 weeks.
Instructor-led courses contain the following:
- Overhead Transparencies/Power Point lessons taught by instructors in the classroom
- Student review using in-depth software (personal and company network versions are available)
- Online Exams and tracking.
About the Course:
Most Spanish courses teach a lot of grammar, vocabulary words, and verb conjugations but students don't learn to actually speak Spanish, and much less with a native speaker. With Visual Link Spanish®, students learn to build sentences, ask and answer questions and truly communicate in Spanish. To ensure authenticity, the course has been revised and taught by native Spanish speakers who are linguists and company executives. It has also been reviewed by a Ph.D. professor of Spanish and a native Spanish speaking lawyer.

"The course is wonderful. I love your product!"
-- Raquel De La Cruz - Training Instructor for the Department of Homeland Security
"...I had just completed 80% of your Spanish Level I course. My wife couldn't believe how well I did with communicating with everyone from bell boys to sales people to folks at the airport. I want to thank you again personally for such a great course . . ."
-- Jim Schulz, Michigan
"Many thanks...This CD-ROM system really works."
--Maaike De Bie, South Dakota
"...Just wanted you to know how much I am enjoying the lessons. I had previously tried learning Spanish from some audio tapes, and also had a Spanish grammar book, but your system is by far the best. It is wonderful to be able to hear and see the words and phrases at the same time."
--Joy Outka, South Dakota
"The U.S. Institute's course and CD ROMs are one of the very best and most effective that I have seen. . . [they] enable the motivated and serious student to immediately utilize the target language with meaningful phrases and sentences."
--Dr. David L. Nielson, Ph.D., Utah (Dr. Nielson was recently quoted in the Wall Street Journal as an Authority on learning languges.)
"The program is simple enough to use for even the most inexperienced computer user. It is also fun to use, as well as an effective learning tool…I have had many positive responses from employees regarding the program. They have also expressed an interest to continue it in the future."
