IFLTA has been actively trying to lay the ground work for a workplace world language course that would allow programs to continue into the third- and fourth-years.  Prior to Jan 14, 2026, we had a Workplace Spanish course code, but that did not allow for the other languages.  IFLTA advocates met with the IDOE in the spring last year to update the Workplace Spanish standards, all they needed was the public comment period which never came.  We learned on Jan 14 that the new Course Titles and Descriptions for 2026-2027 no longer include this.  We have reached out to the IDOE for comment and are waiting to hear back.

At this point we need the legislature to re-instate this course code as well as expand it to ALL languages.  We have laid the ground work for this to happen, but we need your voices to back ours up.  Please fill out the Voter Voice link below:
