The Ministry of Interior reports that in 2010 1186 migrants participated in the program for learning Slovenian language, 19 migrants participated in the program of acquainting with Slovenian history, culture and constitutional arrangement and 1061 migrants took the Slovenian language exam. In April 2010 the ministry also established a web page in Slovenian and 6 other languages http://www.infotujci.si , containing information for migrants. In 8 months of its functioning 25.000 visits of the webpage were recorded, average 3.123 visits per month. In January 2011 the ministry also launched a TV and web campaign ‘Učim se slovensko, da bom lahko povedal, kdo sem’ [‘I am learning Slovenian so I will be able to say who I am’]. According to the ministry the campaign has a simple message – encouraging migrants to participate in courses of Slovenian language, since this will eliminate language barriers and encourage faster and easier integration into Slovenian society.
