The Education Office of the Embassy of Spain promotes diverse educational outreach programs in the United States and Canada. Located in Washington D.C. within the Embassy of Spain, the primary goal of the Education Office of Spain is to foster collaborative educational programs between these countries and Spain, building long lasting ties among their citizens.
Placements are offered all across Spain, in practically every city and town in the country, running from October 1st to May 31st for most assignments. Short term contracts and/or alternative starting dates are unfortunately not available. NALCAP recipients receive a monthly stipend depending on the assigned region and medical insurance from either the national government or the regional governments of Spain. Hours of assistant teaching range from 14 to 16 hours per week also depending on assignment awarded.
Program Eligibility
The following requirements must be met in order to participate in the program.
- Be a U.S. citizen and have a valid passport through the date of the last day of your participation in the program (June 30th, 2027).
Have a conferred college degree or be currently enrolled as a 2nd year or higher college student. NALCAP applicants must have a college degree from an accredited university in the US or Canada. Only college studies undertaken completely in English will be accepted.
- Be a native-like speaker of English.
- Be in good physical and mental health.
- Have a clean background check.
- Be aged 18 - 45. You must be at least 18 years old as of January 1, 2027 and not be 45 to participate in the program.
Participants in the program should have a basic level of Spanish to use in everyday life in Spain (ex. renting an apartment, buying groceries and other daily life tasks). However, please keep in mind that in the classroom you should only be speaking in English (even if you have excellent language skills in Spanish). This is essential to the program and the main reason that you are granted a position.
Grant recipients are requested to be responsible, broad-minded and have a flexible attitude, as well as being open to new ideas and cultures. These qualifications are necessary as recipients will have a direct impact on the education of students in Spain.
