Ocupational Spanish

Program Overview

Occupational Spanish is a series of easy-to-use, job-specific, Spanish training programs for business, government, health care and education.  Our programs can help you improve communication, teamwork, efficiency & productivity in your organization by learning key terms & expressions that help you communicate with Spanish-speakers.

Unlike learning Spanish in the traditional way, you don't have to "learn the whole language" to ask a basic question, greet a customer, talk with a patient, or issue job commands. 

It's these brief conversations that are so important and relatively easy — because our "bite-size" terms & phrases do not require knowledge of grammar, verb conjugations or complicated language rules. 

No prior Spanish experience is necessary.

We can customize any of our programs to meet your specific needs.  This enables you to have customized materials for class training or employee self-study.   

The benefits are well worth the time and small investment!
