The Embassy of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela through the Venezuelan Institute for Culture and Cooperation (VICC) “Hugo Chávez Frías” in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is inviting the Vincentian population to study Spanish and Venezuelan culture free of cost. 

In an April 12 press release, the Institute said that during this new academic period corresponding to April 22nd to July 10th, the Vincentian students will learn the Spanish language which will be part of their personal and professional growth as it is one of the most spoken languages in the world.

The knowledge of this language in turn, will help individuals to have better job and academic opportunities and will promote the knowledge and enjoyment of other cultures, the Institute said. 

The Academic Coordinator of the VICC encourages those interested in studying Spanish for the first time or for those who have already advanced to some level in this language and are interested in continuing their studies, to fill out and submit the registration form by accessing the following link:
