FLAELE has as its objectives the promotion of our region in the market for teaching Spanish, aiming to guarantee quality standards to make our offer attractive and competitive with other regions.
The membership of these four associations is estimated to be 60 schools. A framework of associativity is opened for them, with work in networks and the promotion of programs with a combination of destinations.
