Certificate of Achievement in Spanish Language and Culture

The Certificate of Achievement in Spanish Language and Culture provides opportunities to engage in the many Latinx and Spanish-speaking communities of the Bay Area, along with the potential to engage with travel, law, business and nongovernmental organizations in the United States, Latin America and Spain. For students who already speak Spanish with their families, the certificate will provide the opportunity to extend their linguistic repertoires and validate their knowledges, particularly as applied to their careers. Spanish is an excellent major or minor for those who plan to pursue undergraduate or graduate work in areas such as Anthropology, History, Law, Chicanx Studies or Business. Understanding the diversity of cultural, historical and social contexts in the Spanish-speaking world will provide new insights and a critical lens. The Certificate of Achievement in Spanish Language and Culture will satisfy a transfer language requirement and offers additional benefits for those engaging in future study or work in civil service or the private sector.
