The Importance of Bilingual Education for Global Business Success

Bilingual education is essential in today’s interconnected world, where over 66% of the population speaks more than one language. Students, parents, and school administrators must understand the critical role world languages play in the curriculum. Engaging in professional communities helps educators stay updated and continue their growth. Many U.S. educational institutions fall behind compared to European systems that promote foreign study. Embracing bilingualism is no longer optional; it's crucial for success in international business and personal development.

  1. Bilingual Education and Business I learned that students, parents, administrators and school board members need to be educated as to why world languages are a necessary part of the school curriculum. Being a part of professional community is essential so I can stay up to date in my content areas and continue my development beyond the college experience “The idea of preserving the U.S. as a fiefdom of monolingualismis dead.” Dave Shelly Wichita, Kan. “In a world where over 66 % of the population is at least bilingual, monolingual Americans have less than adequate skills for successful international business.” Robert D. Peckham, Ph.D. “I find that European schools have become much better at encouraging extended foreign study and foreign internships... But in the international business program in my school, they only require one semester of beginning language.” Robert Ponterio “Until about the 1960s, the conventional wisdom was that bilingualism was a disadvantage. Some of this was xenophobia. Thanks to science, we now know that the opposite is true.” Ellen Bialystok
