Chandler, a city that's been on the rise for its innovative spirit and powerful economic growth, is about to break language barriers in business education. In a strategic collaboration aimed at empowering local Spanish-speaking entrepreneurs, the City of Chandler has teamed up with the DAS Foundation and the East Valley Hispanic Chamber of Commerce to roll out essential business courses in Spanish, as announced on March 7th. Starting in April, through programs designed to foster practical skills and boost business growth, the partnership will serve many who are often overlooked due to language constraints.
According to details released by Chandler's official website, the initiative will launch three courses covering Basic Finance, Digital Marketing and Sales, and Business Fundamentals. Not only is this program a beacon of progressive community engagement, but it also ensures that an often-marginalized demographic gains access to valuable tools for economic advancement."We are honored to partner with Chandler’s Economic Development Division and the East Valley Hispanic Chamber of Commerce to offer these transformative business courses in Spanish," Regina Uribe, executive director at DAS Foundation, told the city's news center.
Participants in the program can choose to attend these courses in person or virtually, keeping flexibility and convenience at the forefront. This inclusive gesture extends further with the City of Chandler subsidizing half of the registration fees for locals, a clear commitment to nurturing hometown enterprise talents. Membership in the East Valley Hispanic Chamber of Commerce also snags another 10% off, putting these essential courses within easier financial reach for many.
Uribe emphasizes the impact of these courses on not just the individual, but the community at large. "By providing education in Spanish, we aim to bridge the gap and support East Valley residents who may not have access to many resources in their native language. When minority businesses grow, that results in economic prosperity for all. Whether you prefer in-person or online learning, these courses offer flexible options to accommodate your schedule and preferences. Don't miss this opportunity to invest in yourself and your business success.” she remarked in the same statement. For more details on the courses and registration, potential attendees are directed to visit the mentioned educational partners' websites or reach out to designated contacts like Odette Moore with the City of Chandler, ensuring inquiries can be fully addressed in Spanish as well.
