How Can Universities Use Net Languages?
The Net Languages institutional language training solution provides 100% self-study options, blended options, and additional resource options according to the university’s requirements for higher education language learning.
Self-Access Language Learning
Universities can choose to give access to any of our online English courses and Spanish courses during academic years, terms, or semesters. Each course or module is self-contained and ideal for self-study for university students. The Net Languages higher education language learning platform is designed to be easy to use and intuitive for students. It requires very little support from university administrators.
With self-access language learning all student activity, session times, and scores register on the platform providing full accountability and transparency for course managers. The higher education language learning platform is fully scalable and can be used for both small and large groups of students.
Blended Language Learning
All the online English and Spanish courses available can be combined with one-to-one tutorials, online group classes or in-person classes. The online English course material and Spanish course material is curriculum-aligned with detailed scope and sequence documents available for course managers and teachers. To maximise the success of this model, Net Languages provides universities with training, lesson plans and guidance so teachers can easily integrate the online English course material or the online Spanish course material into their classes. This results in an optimum blended language learning solution.
University Library Access
Universities can choose to use the online English course materials and online Spanish course materials as a resource for university students from online university libraries or online resource centres. In this case, the course materials are not an integral part of coursework but are offered as a valuable resource for students to use for additional English language study or Spanish language study. For this purpose, Net Languages offers a concurrent user model as a cost-effective way to reach large numbers of students at a reduced cost.

What Support Do Universities Receive?
Onboarding and Support Services for Course Administrators and Teachers
Administrators can administer access to the English and Spanish courses on the platform as and when required. We provide administrators with easy-to-use systems for importing both large and small cohorts of students and teachers. The Net Languages higher education language learning platform is fully scalable according to the university’s requirements. Administrators can both track student activity and export cohort reports as and when required. Comprehensive onboarding sessions are provided for course administrators and ongoing support is rendered during the length of the contract.
Course administrators can also assign teachers to students on the Net Languages platform.
