Starting on monday, september 22nd 2008 MIFAS will offer a catalan language course, intermediate level. This course is aimed at all disabled people with a higher than 33% certificate who wish to improve their knowledge of the catalan language and achieve the level B catalan certificate.
The classes will be held at MIFAS Training Classroom in Girona Empúries Square, every monday and wednesday from 10:00 to 11:30 AM until the official announcement for the catalan intermediate level certificate (B) of the Secretaria de Política Lingüística takes place, in march 2009.
MIFAS shall receive 140.000 € for the execution of several projects, funded by the "Ministerio de Educación, Política Social y Deporte", charged at the IRPF'S 0,7. At the ECOM level, the financed amount (the overall of catalan entities) is 1.466.000 €, compared with the 630.000 € last year. An important increase that will please the associations and foundations that constitute the present ECOM. It is also a reward for the human and technical effort ECOM & MIFAS are performing, that gets rewarded at the end. All this is happening at a time when COCEMFE is not really helping us a lot, but the people responsible at the Ministry do value the work of serious people.
