The “Paraná Speaks English” is a SETI (Secretaria da Ciência, Tecnologia e Ensino Superior) project proposal for the state universities of Paraná. The SETI goal is to improve the international mobility of graduate and postgraduate students, teachers and university staff. The project began in 2014 and it is the SETI program first stage "The Paraná Speaks Foreign Languages". Seven universities participate in the program: Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa (UEPG), Universidade Estadual de Londrina, Universidade Estadual de Maringá, Universidade Estadual do Norte do Paraná, Universidade Estadual do Paraná, Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná, and Universidade Estadual do Centro-Oeste do Paraná. This article presents the partial results of this program at the UEPG, which was stablished by an extension course “Paraná Fala Inglês – Curso preparatório intermediário e pós-intermediário TOEFL-iBT”, approved and registered by the Pró-Reitoria Extensão e Assuntos Culturais. The objective is also to discuss the project prospects and its completion in 2016.
