Program in Intercultural Proficiency

Ability to interact and communicate effectively across cultures is extremely important in Southern California, especially in the Los Angeles metropolitan area. There is already an enormous mix of people from many different cultures in this region, and this diversity is continuing to increase. Interaction with people from different cultural backgrounds is inevitable in work, community, and family settings. The Intercultural Proficiency Certificate Program at Cal State L.A. is designed to increase students’ abilities to communicate and interact effectively within our multicultural living and working environment. The certificate program requires 24 units to complete.
