The University of Valencia decided at the end of 1998 to create a centre for the teaching of languages. The Centro de Idiomas (Language Center) of the University of Valencia (CdiUV) was established as a limited liability company, whose only partner is the University itself.

The CdI-UV offers its service for the teaching of languages to those who form a part of the University, formed by 45.000 undergradutates, 8.000 graduates and 3.300 faculty staff. It is also open to anyone not belonging to the institution who wants to learn a language using a special formula based on professional dedication and quality teaching.

The area of Spanish at the CdiUV is seeking for international partners who are able to send students as individuals or in groups to immersion linguistic programs.
