About Us

NALCAP is a public diplomacy program sponsored by the Education Office of the Embassy of Spain in the United States and Canada, the Ministry of Education of Spain and the regional education offices in the 17 regions of Spain.

Canadian citizens are offered the possibility to serve in classrooms across Spain to encourage students of all ages to broaden their knowledge of the world in general and Canada in particular. As cultural ambassadors, Canadian grant recipients share their language and cultural throughout the education system of Spain. At the same time, the program offers recipients the opportunity to immerse themselves in the language and culture of Spain. NALCAP provides an enriching cultural experience for everyone involved.

The program is handled by various offices. For a better understanding of what each one does at each moment of the process, please refer to the infographic below.
