(openPR) - ROSWELL, GA, October 13, 2009 – Workplace Spanish(R), developer of America’s most widely-used job-specific Spanish learning programs, announced today the release of its new ‘Click It(TM) Mini-Program’ featuring clickable Spanish terms, expressions, and pronunciations, that enable health care workers to examine and communicate with Spanish-speaking patients about Swine Flu.
“We wanted to give health care providers an easy-to-use Spanish tool that would enable them to question, examine and discuss Swine and regular flu diagnoses without having to take classes or lengthy training sessions,” said Tom Sutula, President of Workplace Spanish. “The anxiety and concern about this disease is high. Not being able to examine and communicate with Hispanic patients raises their fears even higher and creates a climate of frustration for the health care provider.”
The mini-program is available by download from the company’s website at www.WorkplaceSpanish.com. It is delivered in the easy-to-use Click It(TM) format developed by Workplace Spanish that utilizes PDF files with embedded sound bites so users click on English terms to hear the Spanish and phonetic pronunciations spoken aloud. Users can either repeat the phrase or play it loud enough for a Spanish-speaker to hear. “MP3 files for iPod and music player are also available for download”, Sutula added.
The ‘Swine Flu Patient Examination’ mini-program is priced at only $5.00 per user and the MP3 audio files are $3.50 per user. Multi-user purchases can also be made from the company’s website and organizations of 100 or more users can obtain a site license to use the program on their internal network. Commenting on the reasonable price, Sutula said “we felt this was extremely useful material and did not want price to become a purchase obstacle.”
Founded in 1998, Workplace Spanish® materials help people English and Spanish speakers communicate simply and effectively in various work situations. Designed for time-stressed professionals, managers and associates, the company’s materials are easy to use and non-academic. They do not teach grammar and no prior Spanish training is required to use them. Users learn Spanish pronunciation and how to say “bite-size” terms and expressions, in Spanish, that are relevant to their work environments and everyday conversation.
