Business Language Courses
Business language means different things to different people. A marketing manager may need to present a campaign to an international team, while an accountant may need to explain financial information to a client. A recruiter may conduct interviews in another language, while a project manager may spend their day in meetings with colleagues from several countries.
We take the time to understand your role, your industry and the situations in which you actually use another language. We then tailor your language course to those needs, whether you're looking for one-to-one training, a course for a group of employees or support with a particular professional challenge.
Our main speciality is Business English, but we can also help companies and professionals develop their skills in other languages through our network of experienced language specialists.
Language Needs Analysis
Not sure what kind of language training your employees need?
Our Language Needs Analysis helps you identify where English is used in your organisation, which communication tasks matter most, and where targeted support could make a difference.
We start with a consultation to understand your business, followed by structured questionnaires for management and employees. These explore how English is used in day-to-day work, the situations employees find challenging, and the skills they would most like to develop.
We then analyse the responses and present practical recommendations tailored to your organisation — helping you focus your training budget on the areas that matter most.
Knowing general business vocabulary is not necessarily enough to communicate effectively in your professional environment. You need the language of your particular field.
We provide tailored business language courses for professionals working in areas such as marketing, sales, finance and accounting, HR and recruitment, purchasing, management, administration, IT, project management and customer service, as well as many other professional fields.
For companies, we can develop language courses around the roles, departments and communication requirements of your employees. For individuals, we can focus closely on the language you need in your own professional environment.
Perhaps you need to prepare what you want to say before a negotiation. Perhaps you want to become better at responding when a conversation takes an unexpected direction. Or perhaps you understand your subject perfectly but lack the confidence to discuss it in another language in the same depth as you would in your native language.
We can work on meetings, presentations, negotiations, emails, telephone and video calls, networking, customer communication, professional discussions and many other situations – but only where they are relevant to you.
The aim isn't simply to improve your language skills. It is to help you communicate your professional knowledge, ideas and expertise effectively in an international working environment.
