Greetings BECs,

 

Good news!

 

Your BenefitsCheckUp tool now has a Key Benefits questionnaire in Spanish. We hope that you will use the Spanish-translated site and welcome any feedback and questions you may have. We worked closely with an organization who specializes in providing translations, in multiple languages, for online and print formats. We plan to have a demo of the tool on our next full network call on January 9th, so please also consider asking your questions then; that way everyone in the network call will be privy to the same questions and answers. However, if you have specific questions about the tool and you cannot wait until the network call, please address your questions to Abby Pound, Senior Program Specialist at: Abigail.Pound@ncoa.org.  

 

The Spanish-translated questionnaire is available as the fourth carousel item on the homepage of BCU https://becs.benefitscheckup.org/welcome/. It is titled: Encontrar Mis Beneficios or finding my benefits. This is the Key Benefits Subset screening. The entire site from the carousel onward through the results page and fact sheets are in Spanish. Please note that we did not translate the Entrypoints or office contacts (office names, addresses, etc.) as this will be addressed at a much later date. Entrypoints include any office information in the FAQ section of the fact sheets. Any content within these FAQs (including lead-in paragraphs or other information) have not been translated.

 

We are very excited to be able to offer a Spanish-translated questionnaire on the BenefitsCheckUp website and look forward to enhancing the site in the future with more translatable content.

 

~Randy
