This article analyses the overall situation of TEI training and the development of resources, tools, and projects in the Spanish-speaking context. It also examines the challenges faced when teaching TEI in Spanish taking into consideration two main issues: the still non well-defined DH curriculum and the different pedagogical approaches depending on the context of the learning experience, in our case, the face-to-face instruction, the online education, and the Foreign Language Class. This work aims as well to raise awareness about the lack of resources in Spanish that hinders the growth of a community of practice interested in the use of the TEI in Spain and Latin America. Consequently, it proposes some strategies and new resources that could benefit the outreach and adoption of the TEI inside the Spanish-speaking DH community, while facilitating TEI training in a higher education context.
