    Description
    Satisfies Global Citizenship This course prepares students who have completed the intermediate level of Spanish to enter the workforce in either a Spanish monolingual or a bilingual environment. The course introduces students to both cultural and linguistic expectations within the workplace environment and in addressing clients and partners. Students practice appropriate preparation of documents, early contact communications and interview skills in Spanish, create presentations on industry topics, work in groups to present and discuss business and outreach strategies (including effective outreach to communities and audiences), and branding and product marketing. Financial and budgetary matters, human resource topics and expectations, and industry environments are also covered. The course is taught in Spanish. During this course, students will have the opportunity to participate in optional experiential learning as an introduction to workplace culture.
