TEFL Services International Prepares For Trade Increases in Central America

After the signing of the Central American Free Trade Agreement US officials are expecting an increase in trade between the US and Central American businesses. The problem is that many employees in those businesses do not speak English. TEFL Services International, a US based company that certifies its customers to teach English abroad is increasing its efforts in Costa Rica to help shrink the language gap.

(PRWEB) September 15, 2005 -- TEFL Services International (www.teflcourse.com), an industry leader in teaching English abroad certification programs, is now certifying its students to teach English to Central American companies that seek to increase business with the US.

With the passing of the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), the U.S. Department of Commerce is expecting a sizeable trade increase between the US and Central America, its second largest export market. Central American businesses will now be able to tap into the US telecommunications, energy, and tourism markets among others, but many will face many difficulties to entry. The problem: a high percentage of their employees do not speak English.

To help remedy this, TEFL Services International has created a special program in Costa Rica consisting of two or four weeks of Spanish language immersion followed by their internationally recognized Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) Certificate Course. Central American companies will now have greater access to highly trained English teachers and can increase their international trade opportunities.

TEFL Services International, a US-based organization, is widely recognized as one of the largest and most prominent TESOL certificate course providers in the world today. Founded in 2001, they currently offer year round courses and programs in over 12 worldwide locations along with internship programs and guaranteed jobs in China.
