We are considering offering English as a Second Language to our Hispanic population and would like to partner with a national vendor. Is anyone aware of one vendor that offers a basic ESL course in major cities across the U.S.?

Hi Mark -- I recommend contacting your local university or the National Foreign Language Center (at the University of Maryland). I'm sure they could direct you to extremely good resources for this.

As important as ESL training is cultural training, both for native English speakers as well as native Spanish speakers. Here's a recommended resource:

We are in the process of evaluating Rosetta Stone's elearning programs for both English and Spanish. Based on my research, I think they offer the most effective way to learn a language in a distance learning environment.
