Languages There is nothing more important than languages in the historical moment we are living. Globalization makes posible for people to work for any company around the world without moving from his home. Just a connection to internet, a computer and an open mind is enough to discover there are no limits or boundaries. The point is there are a lot of people out of this emerging market due to different reasons. The lack of infrastructures and access to an internet connection is one of the main challenges for those countries with less resources but there are more factors. One key factor in developed countries is how workers above the fifties can manage the challenge of working just in front of a computer with tools and softwares which evolve on a daily basis. It´s not an easy issue so that to stablish policies to encourage them to be enrolled in trainings in the use of the new technologies should be a priority for the companies but, Who should pay those programs? Should they be paid by the companies or the States should be, at least, parcially fund them? New generations, known as digital natives, will not face that problem, they are used to handling, touching and playing with new devices and it´s almost an useless task to make a ten years-old children understand that smart phones are with us for ten years now.

There is nothing more important than languages in the historical moment that we are living in. Globalization makes it possible for people to work for any company around the world without leaving from their home. Just a connection to internet, a computer and an open mind are enough to discover that there are no limits or boundaries.

The point is that there are a lot of people left out of this emerging market due to different reasons/for various reasons. The lack of infrastructures and access to an internet connection are a few of the main challenges for those countries with fewer resources but there are more/other factors.

One key factor in developed countries is how workers in their fifties can manage the challenge of working just in front of a computer with tools and softwares which evolve on a daily basis. It´s not an easy issue so that to establish policies that/which encourage them to enroll in trainings in the use of the new technologies. This should be a priority for the companies but, who should pay for it? Should they be paid for by the companies or should the States should be, at least, partially responsible?

New generations, known as millennials, will not face that problem since they are used to handling, touching and playing with new devices and it´s almost an useless task to try to make a ten year-old children understand that smart phones have been with us for ten years now.
