The Certificate in Proficiency in Spanish for Business and Professional Communication builds skills and competencies in Spanish for specific professional purposes such as commerce, finance, law, or healthcare. It also develops intercultural communication skills required for communicating in multicultural contexts and for global exchanges, combining language instruction with professional and cultural content relevant to workplace settings. The certificate is completed alongside a York undergraduate degree rather than as a stand-alone credential, and is offered by the Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies. It admits students in the Fall term. On completion it is recorded on the transcript alongside the student's primary degree, documenting applied Spanish-language competency for professional purposes and for cross-cultural communication in multicultural and global professional settings.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The certificate is open to students currently enrolled in a York undergraduate program who will not graduate before starting the certificate, as well as to those who have completed or already hold an undergraduate degree from any recognized university. There is no minimum prior Spanish level required: applicants complete an online placement test to determine their starting level, and even those with no Spanish or only basic proficiency may be eligible to enrol. No separate minimum GPA is published for this certificate beyond the general eligibility above.
