Spring 2013 term (22 April - 19 July)

REGISTRATION FOR THE SPRING TERM IS CLOSED*

*(Still open for some special courses)
 
See registration dates for the fall term
at the bottom of this page




How to register

No in-person registration is available.  In order to register, participants must have created an inspira account as either:

  • internal learners (Secretariat staff members)
or
  • external learners (non Secretariat staff members, including retirees)

Those who have never taken a language course at Headquarters but are not beginners need to register for a placement test. Also returning students who have taken TWO terms off (or more) will need to register for this test.


To register follow these three steps in order:

1. Access inspira.

 
2. Request access to New York Language Courses through inspira, if not already accessible.     
 
3. Once you have access, then register for language courses (or placement tests).

 

Only students who receive email confirmation of their enrolment are considered "registered".  Confirmation e-mail will be sent at the end of the week preceding the first class.



A VIDEO TUTORIAL AND QUICKGUIDES ARE AVAILABLE 

TO HELP STUDENTS AT EACH STEP OF THEIR ENROLMENT.




The later you register, the less likely you are to get the course you want without being put on waiting list.  Students enrolled in one of the last two terms will continue to have priority when registering for level courses, unless they register after the priority registration date.

Students’ UN grounds pass must be valid till end of term for which they will register.  If it's not, to be allowed to register, students must attach a signed letter from their supervisor or executive officer, when submitting their online registration.  This letter should indicate that it is expected that their contract will be extended through the end of the term.


Payments

Cash-paying students (see eligibility) or students with fees due (No Show or Incomplete Attendance fees) must submit proof of payment at registration time.  They will not be allowed to register without submitting this proof of payment. 

No direct payment can be made to LCP.  Payment via cash or cheque (payable to the United Nations) must be made at the Cashier’s Office (located on the 20th floor of the Secretariat building) between 10am and 3.30pm.  Students receive a receipt that they must attach to their online registration page.
