Lingopass - Why Lingopass?

How Lingopass was born

Founded in 2021, Lingopass stands out for its personalized language learning programs, based on the principles of adaptive learning derived from research into artificial intelligence (AI) and education.

With this innovative approach, Lingopass helps companies better understand their employees' needs in terms of language skills and quickly equip them with the competencies they need to communicate more effectively, thus boosting their performance. This becomes even more important in a context of growing international hiring and transaction flows, where mastery of foreign languages has become essential.

Lingopass also contributes to better management of diversity and inclusion within companies. By helping employees to develop their language skills and communicate better with colleagues and clients from different cultures, it promotes an inclusive corporate culture and better mutual understanding.

Edtech has developed a data-driven SaaS platform that allows centralized access to various assessment, training, collaboration and progress and performance metrics monitoring tools in an integrated digital interface, accessible via computer and mobile: large-scale leveling, micro-learning pills by industry and objectives, language upskilling through live classes and adaptive tracks that mold to the users' personality profile, boosting motivation, completion rates and certification. The solution provides managers with transparency and control over the use of resources earmarked for Language Training and Development programs.

In addition, Lingopass makes its education platform available free of charge to professionals at the start of their careers or in transition, with the aim of improving their employability. This initiative aims to accelerate the hiring of high-potential talent in situations of structural unemployment, especially in emerging economies in Latin America, Africa and the Middle East.

The startup serves universities and multinationals in the areas of aviation, energy, logistics, agribusiness, technology, finance and services. It received investment from the Brazilian fund Domo Invest. Accelerated by AWS since its inception, the startup took part in the Endeavor Scale-Up program and is currently resident at the Itaú Cube in the District and at the Learning Village, the Anima group's innovation hub. Affiliated with ENS Paris Saclay, it was a finalist in "The EdTech Awards 2023" promoted by EdTech Digest, and is also on the list of the 100 most promising technology companies in the field of education, according to the ranking by the American consultancy HolonIQ.

Our success stories

Brazilian army

more than 340 military personnel trained

2 years of partnership

Four language levels in 12 months - from A1 to B2

How the Brazilian Army trained its soldiers to act in French-speaking territories with the help of Lingopass.

he Brazilian Army is an active member of many interventions in foreign countries under the responsibility of the United Nations. Following the example of the latest campaign in Haiti, a country whose official languages are Haitian Creole and French, other countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Mali, Lebanon and the Central African Republic are among the probable destinations of Brazilian troops in future missions and have the use of French as one of the official or widely spoken languages in their national territories. Communicating with the local population is, then, an imperative for military personnel incorporated into these missions and, therefore, learning French is indispensable to them.

In 2017 and 2018, Lingopass delivered online French classes specifically aimed at military personnel, with material and content designed with this audience in mind, enabling them in record time to join foreign missions in the French-speaking world.

"About a year ago, I made a commitment to myself that I would learn French by the end of 2019. In that context, Lingopass has been my ally in learning, providing me with an excellent quality digital platform and online classes."

38 senior executives + relatives trained

Four language levels in 12 months - focus on conversation and comprehension

Our mission was to train 38 top executives and their relatives in French and Portuguese to guarantee successful expatriation experience to each of them. As a solution, in addition to providing unlimited access to our e-learning service, we offered live conversation classes to the participants, created a tailor-made course to meet the demands of their respective professional markets, Business French, and even created a workshop for the group, Intercultural Management.

Thus, in 12 months, all were able to complete their training in French and Portuguese, focusing on comprehension and conversation, reaching level B1 in their respective languages.

TRT

50 magistrates trained

Three language levels in 10 months - focus on Legal French

Our challenge with the Regional Court of the 2nd São Paulo Region was to train 50 magistrates, including judges and auxiliary judges, in French. To this end, we offered unlimited access to our e-learning, live classes and even academic guidance for studies in France for those interested in carrying out their specialization in French lands. As a result, all participants graduated in A2 French, with a focus on writing and Legal French.

"We have trained our employees from level A1 (beginner) to level B1 (pre-intermediate) with Lingopass. Our focus was the increase in productivity made possible by communication in English.
