Everybody Loves Languages (ELL) announced an additional sale in Colombia by securing another contract with leading language training and test-prep education provider, Sophia Educational Group. The ELL language-learning system will be offered to students from preschool to grade 11. ELL is a subsidiary of Lingo Media Corporation.

Sophia Educational Group is a leading education company in Colombia, serving more than 3,000 students with digital courses, government prep-test training, and online evaluations. The Bogota- based company expects to expand its market share and generate significant new revenue by offering ELL's solutions as a white-labeled product. Sophia has implemented multiple ELL courses, including Campus and Campus Premium, to prepare high school students for their standard high school English exit exams. According to a survey released by the British Council, an organization specializing in international cultural and educational opportunities, more than two-thirds (68%) of responding employers said English was an essential skill sought in new hires, and 81% rated English as a seven or above on a one-to-ten scale in terms of importance.

And 69% of managers called English a "must-have" skill in their current position, once again reinforcing the reality that employment opportunities in Colombia are markedly improved for those who speak English.
