GET TO KNOW CCLS
For over 30 years, CCLS has offered the CCAA methodology abroad. Founded in Miami in 1991, CCLS now offers English, Portuguese, and Spanish classes — accredited internationally by ACCET, allowing schools to welcome students on F1 visas.
Our three largest centers — CCLS Miami (ACCET - accredited), CCLS New Jersey (CEA - accredited) and CCLS Houston (in the process of accreditation by CEA) — are key international hubs in our network. These accreditations recognize our schools’ academic excellence and authorize us to receive international students, further reinforcing the quality and impact of the CCAA methodology worldwide. These milestones make us proud and strengthen our global presence.
