English Learning and Enhancement Activities Program Paraguayan Public Servants

The Public Diplomacy (PD) section of the U. S. Department of State at the Embassy of the United States of America in Paraguay announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to coordinate a comprehensive English program for public servants.

This includes serving as the main


point of contact for an Embassy provided English Virtual Educator and creating and implementing an 8-month extracurricular enhancement activities program.

The project will be tailored to Paraguayan public servants working in Ministries within the greater Asuncion Metropolitan Area, as part of a hybrid American English language learning and professional enhancement program.

This program is part of an initiative to support Paraguayan public servants, who will participate during their free time and for whom enhancing their English language skills would have practical application in the workplace.

Proposals must be designed to fulfill two primary functions:
1) Serve as the main point of contact and administrative coordinator for an Embassy-provided English Virtual Educator who will develop a curriculum and provide virtual English classes to the participants.

2) Create and implement in-person enhancement activities that support language learning and knowledge acquisition about successfully navigating bilateral and multilateral engagements.
