Other Services

Other services, which are not included in the program contribution, but that InsightArgentina can assist with, include:

Language Classes

Language classes can be private, group, or a combination of the two. They may occur before, during, and/or after the placement, and will be highly tailored to the participant’s needs within his or her placement. Online testing will be part of the application procedure, and a language class recommendation will be made based on the candidate’s score. Some amount of language classes during the candidate’s stay will always be encouraged, despite the test scores.
