Cadets travel to and reside in a linguistic and cultural community for three weeks. There they use their knowledge of Spanish, its varieties and connected cultures to accomplish learning tasks, solve problems and live daily routines. A structured program of immersion may include visits to sites of military, political, historical, or social significance; official orientations and lectures; meetings with local or national civilian and military leaders; and directed language learning activities. A Department instructor accompanies the participating cadets, who are obliged to use Spanish during this extended stay.
