創立時聚焦英語訓練，隨學習者對歐、日語等外語及文化興趣攀升，現提供超過六種外語之訓練及評量服務。訓練內容包括一般生活及職場外語，更擴及社交互動、商務溝通、會議談判、簡報口譯等專業訓練。同時，順應外語教育向下延伸、素養課綱之實施，規劃設計專屬中小學生、強調自學策略培養之課程與評量。
When the center was first founded, it focused primarily on English training. As learners' interest in languages and cultures from places such as Europe and Japan increased, the LTTC expanded its training and assessment services to six languages. Course content came to include everyday and business language and extended into professional training areas such as social interaction, business communication, negotiation, presentation, and interpretation. At the same time, in accordance with the extension of foreign language teaching into the elementary school system and the implementation of the competency curriculum, the center planned and designed courses and assessments focused on primary and secondary school students, emphasizing the cultivation of self-learning strategies.

結合教學及評量，兼具研發與實務，積極呼應國家及縣市政府政策，跨足中小學雙語師資增能研習、研發雙語課室評量資源；並回應各機關國際交流、涉外事務需求日增，為外交部、衛福部、經濟部、國防部、文官學院等公務單位以及上百家企業機構客製專辦外語訓練課程，以語用為目標、以溝通為導向。
The LTTC combines teaching and evaluation; incorporates both R&D and practical experience; actively responds to national, county and city government policies; and conducts both research into enhancing the abilities of bilingual teachers at elementary and middle schools and the development of assessment resources for the bilingual classroom. Organizing customized, communication-oriented language training courses, the LTTC responds to the increasing demands of various agencies for foreign affairs and international exchange, such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the Ministry of Economics, the Ministry of National Defense, the Civil Service Academy, and hundreds of other enterprises and institutions.
配合90學年度國小五六年級全面實施英語教學政策，LTTC受教育部委託辦理「88年度國民小學英語教師英語能力檢核測驗」；通過測驗且完成師資培訓者，即具備國民小學英語教師資格。教育部推估90學年度需英語師資3,300人，但報名盛況空前，總報考人數約5萬人。
In line with the 2001 English education initiative, the LTTC was commissioned to administer a test assessing the language proficiency of elementary school English teachers, starting in 1999. Those who passed the test and completed the teacher training would then be qualified to teach English at elementary schools. The MOE estimated the number of teachers needed in 2001 would be about 3,300. However, the actual number of registrants fort the test was approximately 50,000, far exceeding expectations.
為實際了解技專校院學生的英語程度，做為學校英語教學改進之參考，教育部委託LTTC針對技專校院體制內學生進行為期三年(90年至92年度)的英語能力檢測及英語能力定期追蹤，三年間總計抽樣約28,000名學生。
To gain a clearer understanding of the level of English among technical and vocational school students, the LTTC was commissioned by the MOE to conduct a 3-year longitudinal study (2001 to 2003) to examine and track English proficiency in this group. Over the 3 years, a total of 28,000 students participated in the study.
