Online Language Courses | Earn College Credit

Learning a language opens up a world of new personal and professional possibilities.

The Concordia Language Institute is offered through Concordia's Department of World Languages & Cultures in partnership with the Concordia Language Villages. Courses are open to anyone (post high school) interested in exploring a new language. 

A majority of our courses are for beginners with no previous experience. There are also intermediate and advance options available for those with previous language experience. All credit courses are taught by language instructors from Concordia College and the Concordia Language Villages in an online format, with synchronous, hybrid and asynchronous options.
