Even though Calgary’s Italian community is small in numbers (there are around 1,500 people who speak Italian in the region), their influence on the culture of the city is considerable. This traces back to the last century, when Italians primarily came to Alberta in two main waves as they sought to escape WWI and then WWII. Today, this Italians have become an integral part of Calgary’s cultural and business communities, owning businesses related to food, construction, retail, sports and more! If you would like to truly understand the cultural scenery of Calgary and to take advantage of the professional opportunities available to bilingual speakers, start learning Italian with us! At Language Trainers, we specialize in designing tailor-made courses that suit your personal needs and schedule.

Why Study Italian in Calgary

Learn Italian for Work: If you are looking for a new job in Calgary, learning Italian will certainly help you achieve your goal. Many companies with headquarters in the city, like WestJet, the Italian Centre Shop and Great Italian Importers, frequently fluent Italian speakers for positions like customer service leader, sales agent and cabin crew member. Also, you can reach out to the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Canada West on Edmonton Trail. This institution has been in operation since 1992, promoting friendly business relations between the city and Italy. Specifically, they promote an annual networking series called Ombreta, where you can attend talks and conferences delivered by Italian native speakers. Connect with them on a whole new level using your Italian skills and build long-lasting business partnerships.

Learn Italian for Culture: If you are not actively job-seeking but would like to experience the fascinating Italian culture instead, you will find plenty of opportunities to do so around Calgary. For example, you can attend events by the Calgary Italian Cultural Centre on 1^st Avenue, an institution founded in 1998 with the objective of preserving the Italian culture and heritage. For example, if you love the Italian cuisine, you can participate in monthly cooking classes, where you will learn how to prepare mouth-watering traditional dishes from talented chefs from Rome. And you can buy every ingredient you will need to cook this delicious food at the Spinelli Italian Centre Shop on Willow Park. From mortadella to gnocci, this deli has a wide selection of Italian cheeses, meats and antipasti!

Learn Italian for Social: Your new Italian skills will also come in handy when making new friends in Calgary. For example, you can join the Italian InterNations space in Calgary, a group that was originally meant for expats to share their experiences but that today welcomes anyone with an interest in the language. Connect with native Italian speakers and have a good time while you put your language skills into practice! Another option is to join the Language Lovers in Calgary Meetup, a group of people who are passionate about different cultures and want to learn more about their history, music and arts. After the meeting, why not take your new friends to a themed restaurant, such as Spinelli Bar Italia on 12 Avenue or Buon Giorno Ristorante Italiano on 17 Avenue. Order your pasta or pizza in Italian and impress your new friends with the skills you learn with us at Language Trainers!
