As I have passed my exams, I am now going to embark on completing the Spanish for Business certificate, which I have not seen many people mention doing in this forum. While the materials look daunting at first, on closer inspection all you actually need to do to get the certificate is one single writing assignment. Here is my plan:
- Play at least 2 Pokemon games in Spanish, and read one news article (or something else) from Spain, a little every day. No dictionaries or translations. When googling about ENEB itself, I found I can already get the basic gist of news articles even without knowing any Spanish.
- After completing Pokemon, get chat-gpt4 to test me on the contents of each of the 3 Spanish for Business pdfs. If I do poorly, I will need to play more videogames and read more news articles.
- I may end up registering for another course or titulo propio that grants ECTS, from a place cheaper than ENEB and entirely in Spanish, in something that I can actually use in my career field. That would force me to read higher level materials and to do writing output. When researching, I found that several schools granting degrees are accredited only in their Spanish courses, so this would open up a lot more opportunities for cheap accredited education, and it will help make my ENEB education seem more legit if I actually learned how to read/write in Spanish.
I have something like 15 months left to complete the Spanish for Business course, so I think this will be easily done.
