Online language courses
CIAL can offer students who for various reasons are unable to attend traditional, classroom-based courses the possibility of following language courses online with innovative, interactive software.
Having acquired a login name and password from the Secretary’s Office at CIAL, students are then free to choose both when they study the language and where (studying via the Internet at home as well as at any of the University’s computer terminals).
For the entire period of online learning, students will be able to contact one of CIAL’s native speaker tutors, either by email or in person. The tutor will be available to give advice and reply to questions about the language.
Enrolments
CIAL’s online courses are for students, administrative staff of the university, PhD students, Master’s students, scholarship students, researchers and teaching staff of the University of Trento.
People not listed above can only access these courses if they are already attending a CIAL course.
Staff of affiliated bodies can normally only access the English courses; they can access courses in other languages only if they are already attending a CIAL course.
Please note that in order to enrol (or to pay if enrolment is made online) Master’s students, scholarship students and researchers on fixed-term contracts and staff of affiliated bodies must show a document issued by the University attesting their status. This document can be handed into to the CIAL Secretary’s Office at the moment of enrolment or, if enrolment is made online, sent by fax to 0461-282900 together with the bank transfer receipt (if payment is made by bank transfer).,
