The aim of this course is to increase knowledge of issues, customs, and vocabulary necessary to meet the demands of working in an international Spanish-speaking environment, in the areas of diplomacy, government and business. Continued development of reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills is central as students begin to function within defined professional workplaces. The instructor will attempt to match course content to student needs and interests, with each individual focusing in-depth on studying her future profession or area of interest in a Spanish-speaking context.
