Does your business, organization or agency regularly interact with individuals who have limited English proficiency? Do you or your staff communicate with individuals whose safety, legal rights or health are at stake? Do you work in a technical industry that demands accurate and concise communication to meet product or industry safety standards?

LEDA can help you meet this challenge by working with you on industry specific words and phrases. In our Business Spanish Course, we make it a priority to ensure you obtain a level of comfort with communicating important or necessary job-related content in Spanish.
