SPCC to Offer Spanish for the Workplace

South Piedmont Community College will offer Spanish for the Workplace (SPA 120) in Monroe and Polkton this fall.

The Monroe class will be offered Monday and Wednesday, 6-7:15 p.m., on the Old Charlotte Highway Campus. The Polkton class will be offered Tuesday and Thursday, 12:30-1:45 p.m., on the L.L. Polk Campus.

Taught by SPCC Spanish Instructor Dora Sanchez, a native Spanish speaker, the course is designed to give people Spanish skills for today’s workplace. Emphasis is placed on facilitating basic communication with people whose native language is Spanish. Career-specific vocabulary that targets health, business and public service professions will be stressed.

“Having this skill puts you a notch above others for getting the job you want or keeping the job you have,” said Valerie Jones, Arts & Sciences division chair at SPCC. The course was developed in response to needs identified by employers in Anson and Union counties.

College admission requirements must be met to enroll in this three-credit-hour course. For information about the enrollment process, go to www.spcc.edu. For more information, contact Valerie Jones at 704-272-5438 or vjones@spcc.edu.
