lCADS
Spanish Language School in Costa Rica

The Institute for Central American Development Studies (ICADS) was created in 1986 to fill the information gap in foreign policy between North American citizens and their governments, promoting a deeper understanding of the Central American region.  ICADS is a center for study, research, and analysis of Central American social and environmental issues.

ICADS offers four separate and distinct study programs through which students can earn academic credit as a study abroad program for their university, take intensive Spanish language coursework and volunteer in any number of internships it has available.  In particular, Spanish is taught with an emphasis on learning about the politics, social conditions, environmental issues, and human rights in Central America today.

ICADS supplements intensive conversation, grammar and practice with guest lectures, discussions on different issues, as well as site visits that create even more opportunities for total immersion learning. The Spanish classes have a maximum of 4 students per class.  Additionally, all activities, lectures, and field trips are included in the price of tuition.
