According to census data, the Hispanic and Latino population is one of the fastest growing groups in the United States. From 2000 to 2006, the Hispanic growth rate (24.3%) was more than three times the growth rate of the total population (6.1%). With this rapid population growth comes an increased need for people who can communicate in Spanish. It is particularly important for healthcare workers to be able to speak the language of their patients. To fill this need, We Care Online is pleased to announce the latest addition to our classes: Spanish for Healthcare Workers.
This eight week beginner course is tailored to the needs of students with limited or no previous experience studying Spanish (and for those who have been without practice for a significant period of time). The class involves 24 hours of online learning and will introduce you to the basics of the Spanish language and provide information about the cultural differences you may encounter. The class gives you a focused introduction to healthcare vocabulary and will teach you basic phrases so that you can effectively communicate with Spanish speakers. It's an eight-week class and costs $157.50 (plus the cost of a textbook). In eight weeks you can boost your skills and make yourself an even more valuable employee. The class opens on October 24 and is open enrollment, so you may start at any time after the 24th. Sign up today!
