Teaching of Catalan
Catalan courses for adults are divided into: Beginners’ level (aimed at non-Catalan speakers), Intermediate level intended for people with a good command of the oral language and aimed at developing comprehension, speaking and writing skills, and Advanced level. Specific training is designed for groups such a shopkeepers and local police or professional groups with their own specialised language such as legal language.
Distance learning is provided for the intermediate level based on self-learning aided by a tutor.
The Consorci has 10 Catalan self-learning centres in Barcelona which provid the services of a tutor to guide the learning process.
The "Digui, digui" course is for non-Catalan speakers broadcast by local radio and television stations. "Català en curs" is a course offered for Catalan speakers in the local and regional press.
