SPAN 150 – Spanish for the Professions (3)
Spanish for the Professions provides immediate access to functional verbal and written Spanish language skills as well as cultural awareness for non-Spanish speaking persons when interacting with Spanish speaking persons in a professional setting. As students enrolled in a specific degree, diploma or certificate program, they will use their knowledge of Spanish in fields such as health, business, public safety, social services, as well as restaurant and hotel management to comprehend the situation at hand and respond appropriately. The course is designed for those either studying their future profession or currently working who wish to eliminate barriers to understanding and communication so that they may work as effectively and efficiently as possible while interacting with Spanish speaking persons on the job. The focus of the vocabulary presented will vary as the specific needs of the students vary. (GE09), (WLNG)
