Career Education: Foreign languages: "Career builders seeking to improve their careers should notice that this is an increasingly globalized world in which markets have become really transnational. Foreign languages are no longer just a plus: they have become a real must even if your native language is English."
We still don't get it in Australia. We have got to get people to be bilingual and multilingual or we are going to be hard pressed to survive in the multinational, global market. We do actually have a lot of bilingual Australians but monolingual Australians think that other people should be learning and talking languages. Once Australians get going they pick up languages very quickly. It's a headset problem we need to address pronto.
Oz Traveller provides some great help on learning languages.
