How much does it cost?

Each industry-specific course costs $99 for 6 months of unlimited access.

Are there any books or other materials to buy?

No. All of the information that you will need is contained in the course. 

The lessons within the courses, however, do follow along with "¡A Trabajar!", an occupational Spanish workbook used in classroom settings. However, this workbook is not necessary for the online class.

Each course also includes a downloadable "Pronto Guide," a 7+ page vocabulary list of the phrases and words covered in the course. If you would like to purchase a condensed 4-page "Pronto Guide" containing the most relevant phrases and words with an audio CD for additional reference, you may do so here.

When I click "Launch" to start the course, nothing happens or a window comes up with an error message.

The course tries to open a new browser window called a popup window. Sometimes your browser will prevent this from happening. So, as the user, you have to tell the browser it is ok to allow a new window to open (allow a popup for this site). 

To allow a popup in Internet Explorer, hold down the Ctrl key while clicking the Launch button. You may also see message in your browser saying something about a popup being blocked and how to allow it. Simply follow the instructions to "allow a pop-up."

I do not hear anything, but I know that there is audio with this course.

If there is no sound/audio when the course starts, there are a few things to double check on your computer: 

  1. Check to see if you can play other sounds.
  2. Make sure your speakers are turned on and plugged in.
  3. Also check your volume setting in Windows by clicking: Start > Programs > Accessories > Entertainment > Volume control. Make sure that "Mute" or "Mute all" is not selected and adjust the volume and balance controls to the levels you prefer.
  4. You may have anti-virus or anti-spyware that may be blocking some of the content. Try turning off your anti-virus or anti-spyware and see if this helps. If so, try setting your anti-virus or anti spyware up so that the content from www.prontolearning.com is allowed on your computer.

Do I need Macromedia (Adobe) Flash Player?

Pronto Spanish uses Macromedia (Adobe) Flash to deliver much of its lesson content. Flash is a commonly used web browser plug-in and is generally considered safe. You can download a current version here.

Do you offer CEUs upon completion of your Spanish courses?

Yes, some partner colleges offer CEUs.

My organization or institution would like to partner with Pronto Spanish. I understand that we can buy courses at a wholesale rate or be part of an affiliate program that refers students. How much can our institution earn? What is required of us?

Yes! We do have a revenue sharing Partner Program in place. For more details, visit our Partner Program webpage.
