Linguistic Horizons
At ELAM, we have spent more than three decades supporting organizations operating in complex linguistic environments. Over the years, one thing has become clear: language in the workplace is never just about words. It’s about clarity, confidence… and today, compliance.
Since the adoption of Law 96, many organizations have been asking practical questions. What does this actually mean for us? How do we meet the requirements? How do we support our teams? And most importantly, how do we approach this in a smart, strategic way?
Attempting to learn a new language while working full-time can feel like trying to climb a hill after an arduous day. You have motivation at the beginning; the best of intentions, and the harsh realities crash in. Meetings run late. Energy dips. Life happens. Before you know it, your language goals are just sitting at the bottom of your to-do list untouched. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. Most professionals don’t have consistency — not because they aren’t disciplined, but because their learning plan doesn’t align with their real life. Hitting too hard, hitting too fast is one of the most common mistakes. “I want to be fluent” is a nice thing to say but not useful on a Tuesday night when your brain is already fried. Motivation grows more intense when goals are relevant and attainable. Instead of trying feverishly to get fluent in one area, concentrate on something concrete: speaking up more comfortably at meetings, picking up emails quickly or raising your voice on customer calls. These moments matter. They also remind you why you started in the first place.
After more than 32 years in corporate and professional language learning, ELAM has witnessed numerous “game-changing” technologies emerge and fade. Some quietly disappeared and others genuinely changed how people learn. From the first digital resources to today’s fully online, industry-specific programmes, technology has steadily reshaped professional language training. Generative AI feels different again. Not because it replaces good teaching—but because it changes what is possible, and how we need to think about learning. Here’s a look back at the milestones that shaped ELAM in 2025.
