April Insight 1

HRCap observed the top 10 foreign languages studied and acquired across degree levels in the United States. The graphs demonstrate that Higher Education continues to prioritize the importance and utility of Foreign Language Education. Increasingly more students are beginning to study and master West and East Asian Languages (Chinese, Turkish, Korean, Japanese) as more entities are also attempting to globalize and localize their reach in foreign markets. In fact, this echoes the increasing amount of client job openings that require language fluency and cultural aptitude as essential criteria for success. We project that the number of students acquiring West and East Asian Languages will continue to soar over the next 5 years.
