LANGUAGE INCLUSIVITY ASSESSMENT

If you are considering hiring individuals who don't speak English well, it's essential to take the time to set your company and leadership up for success. This starts by evaluating your current hiring, onboarding, and training practices to ensure you can accommodate those who speak little English. 


We can help you create an onboarding and training process that accommodates non-native English speakers. We will start by conducting an assessment of your current hiring and onboarding process. Next, we will make recommendations and help you build a process that will work for your company.

WORKPLACE ESL

FOCUSED ON THE WORKPLACE

Our curriculum prepares employees to communicate more clearly with coworkers and supervisors. We discuss workplace safety, reading schedules and time cards, and asking and answering questions. We build employees' confidence to use the language they learn in class.

We know that every company is different. That's why our process results in a customized approach for your company. When a company contacts us with a request for ESL classes, we will set a time to meet with the team. We take the time to understand the company's challenges around language barriers. We also provide an assessment for all employees who need language development. 

Based on our assessment and meetings with the team, we can make a recommendation for which employees most need ESL training. If there are safety concerns, the lowest English proficiency levels should be addressed first. If the company needs bi-lingual lead workers, we can take the high proficiency level employees and develop their leadership skills to prepare them for more responsibility. Either way, it's essential for us to understand the specific needs of each company. 

We also take the information we glean and make adjustments to our curriculum to ensure we are targeting the most needed language. Every company is different, and we believe that even the ESL classes they offer should reflect that.
