The aim of the course is to recognize and validate students' competence in foreign languages, primarily English, but also other important languages that increase the employability of graduates in the field of adult education and human resources development (typically Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian). In this sense, the subject replaces the obligation to take one subject in English. It is also possible to enrol in a course if the student has completed the course in English, but is also competent in one other language.
