The article explains the process of design and construction of the written component of the Learner Corpus of Spanish as a Foreign Language and Second Language (CAELE/2), which is the first of its kind in Colombia. Its objective is to provide teachers and researchers with actual language samples collected among foreign and deaf learners, so as to foster analyses and proposals that benefit these populations. CAELE/2 is an open corpus that includes 166 systematized samples provided by 83 participants who took the tests designed for the project.
