## A Language Partner, Not a One-Off Vendor

Workplace Languages has delivered business language solutions since 1998. The company philosophy is straightforward: understand the communication challenge, align the right mix of services, and stay accountable for results with responsive support and practical delivery.

-   Long-term client relationships are treated as the foundation of the business
-   Customer service, affordability, and measurable value are part of every engagement
-   Support is designed around company goals rather than generic language packages
-   Programs can scale across industries, locations, and multilingual teams

## Business Language Solutions Beyond Training

The company overview is broader than classes alone. Workplace Languages supports written, spoken, and multimedia communication so organizations can manage multilingual operations with one coordinated partner.

-   Professional translations for documents, web content, training materials, and operational files
-   Transcreation for culturally adapted marketing and creative messaging
-   Transcription, voiceovers, and subtitling for multilingual audio and video content
-   Over-the-phone interpretation for faster communication when language support is needed immediately

## Training Designed for Real Workplace Communication

Training is built for employees from entry-level teams to executives, with onsite and live online formats. The emphasis is practical communication in real job contexts so people can communicate more confidently, collaborate better, and perform more effectively.

-   Programs are suited for all industries and a wide range of employee roles
-   Classes focus on speaking, confidence, and getting the point across on the job
-   Content can support teamwork, productivity, customer interactions, and leadership communication
-   Delivery aims to remove unnecessary complexity and keep the learning experience low-stress and usable

## Company-Specific Tools That Reinforce the Philosophy

Some organizations need fast, practical support beyond live training or project-based language services. Workplace Languages also creates company-specific resources that give employees exactly the language they need to use right away.

-   KwikFix and similar tools are tailored by company, role, and industry
-   Resources focus on the language needed to communicate clearly, not academic completeness
-   Pronunciation support helps employees start using key phrases quickly
-   These tools are often used to support productivity, safety, retention, and less frustration from miscommunication

## All Testimonials

### Sodexo

> Workplace Languages is a fantastic business partner to work with. They have helped Sodexo with so many projects, from language training to document and web translation. I can always count on Ed and his team to be responsive, timely and incredibly helpful in meeting our needs.

Jennifer (Grabiec) Williamson · Senior Vice President, Corporate Communications · Sodexo

### Border Foods Co.'s

> We have worked with Ed Rosheim at Workplace Languages for over 9 years now. We have offered Spanish speaking classes for Senior Management Team, our Multi-Unit Managers and Restaurant Managers to enable them to more easily communicate with their restaurant teams. We have offered English speaking classes to our team members. Ed’s passion for teaching and speaking Spanish and the methods he uses make the learning easy and quick. The concentration on conversational Spanish enabled students to start using key phrases immediately.
>
> The return on investment is almost immediate as the entire organization is made more efficient with better communication. The ROI is measurable since the key team members that have taken the ESL courses and then subsequently been promoted are all management team members that would be empty positions today or filled by much more expensive external hires. We also have offered an advanced ESL class for some of our Restaurant Managers and Assistant Managers. Ed listened to our needs and tailored the course specifically to increase the effectiveness of this group within their job responsibilities. The class covered things like doing appraisals and reviews, e-mail etiquette when replying to customer concerns and other basic but essential every day restaurant responsibilities. The increase in effectiveness and confidence among those attending the advanced ESL classes has been nothing short of amazing.
>
> The relationship our company has had with Ed has really added value and helped us towards achieving our goal of being the choice employer in our market.
