Students enrolled in these programs are provided with a place and opportunities to develop their language skills, enhance their cultural awareness and experience exchanges between their culture and that of the United States of America, and ultimately, foster greater understanding between the people of both countries.

The American and Jefferson Centers achieve this goal through a structured English language learning program open to the general public, with specialized language and culturally-focused courses and opportunities to interact with native English speakers.

In addition, the American and Jefferson Center Libraries offer an array of resources for members and visitors, as well as public programs, and organized clubs.

English teacher training is sometimes offered as well.
