SpanishNet College and the Deaver Foundation announced today that they have established a cooperation agreement to offer Spanish language courses to US teachers and other school employees, as well as for nurses and related health care providers.

"I am really enjoying the Spanish course. It really is a great way to learn Spanish. It is really not that time consuming; it is up to you how much effort and time you put forward. We have a great teacher and I am really having fun and learning at the same time!" - T.P.

"Thanks for doing this course. I am really enjoying it and now that school is over I should be able to devote more time to it. This is exactly what I wanted...a directed self study. Thanks for all your help!" - L.A.R.

The online learning program enables students to study regardless of time and place and will help those who need to communicate with the growing Hispanic population about crucial subjects such as education and health.

Educating students online for the past ten years, SpanishNet College is highly regarded for its expertise in online course delivery that satisfies training needs in areas such as: required weekly participation; concentrated study; Web-based research for the most current information on the subject; regular interaction with the professor and nationwide classmates in a small online classroom setting; and evaluation of knowledge acquisition.

The school is well known for its asynchronous style of study, enabling students in a variety of time zones to interact with their professors and fellow students when convenient, and also to allow them to log in at the same time using text and live, audio virtual classrooms. The school offers a large number of courses for a variety of interests.

The special course will start on Monday, October 3, 2005, and end on Friday, April 21, 2006. There will be three, two-month course segments: Spanish 101, 102 and 103, but classes will not be offered during the month of December due to the holidays.

The last day for registration will be Friday, September 23, 2005. Interested students may request further information and a registration form by emailing: spanscholar2006@cs.com
