Corporate Language Training: Course Format
Extensive Language Training
We design language course modules for clients who have to deal with foreign counterparts on a regular basis, but who have no particular urgency assimilating the language. If you have long-term business commitments with foreign partners or clients, extensive language training will meet your needs. Lessons are usually 90 minutes, once or twice a week and a typical module is 36 hours. This type of corporate language course has to be regarded as a long-term strategic investment. Moreover, it constitutes an efficient tool of staff retention.
Operational Language Training
If you frequently travel abroad or deal more and more with foreign clients, operational language training is the most effective solution. Operational language training is a combination of regular extensive sessions and intensive training days, which kick-start the course and later either consolidate the knowledge assimilated during the regular tuition or boost the learning process. This is an excellent option guaranteeing effective results in a short time.
Crash courses
If you are confronted with an immediate and urgent need for communication, a crash language course is the answer. This will help you to meet a very specific need (e.g. preparing for a presentation or a meeting, going to a seminar, transferring abroad...). Such language programmes can be organised and carried out on a very short notice, at any time and any day. They can take place in your offices or in ours in Dublin if you need a quiet environment where you will not be disturbed. Prior to your crash course, we will carry out an in-depth level assessment as well as a detailed needs analysis in order to define your personal course content.
