Occupational
Spanish
As the population
of Wisconsin changes and diversifies, the need for foreign language skills,
particularly Spanish, increases. Companies are looking for new and better
ways to communicate with employees and customers in the languages they bring
to work and to market.
Madison Area Technical College
can help your employees communicate in Spanish. Improving the communication
skills of your supervisors, managers, salesforce and employees creates
a more welcoming environment, postively impacting employee retention and
turnover.
Learning a language to improve
workplace communication means learning the vocabulary of the workplace.
MATC's customized language instruction focuses directly on the language
required for job performance. Our experienced trainers analyze the language
usage on the job and design programs that are industry, company and job
specific.
Communication is more than
speaking another language. Understanding the culture of limited English
speakers also serves to improve the environment in your workplace. MATC's
training programs can incorporate the essentials of the cultural, historical,
family and religious practices of workers and customers from the Hispanic
world.
