Business English Training
Help your employees succeed in English
- Strengthen confident communication with customers, partners and colleagues
- Promote employee retention with a training measure which enhances a core skill
- Encourage networking among employees
Relevant. Enjoyable. Active.
Your company’s training goals are our starting point, so content and learning outcomes relate directly to your priorities. Also, we feel strongly that people learn best when they enjoy the process, so we ensure that training stays interesting, supportive and energizing. Lastly, since language is learned through active use, we motivate employees to speak, think, speak, solve, speak, play and speak in English. Did we mention speak?
Comprehensive? Narrowly Focused? Both?
If your goal is to increase employees’ confidence and skills in English fundamentally and for a range of work-related contexts, have a look at our innovative Ascend system. If the aim instead is to sharpen their English for one particular situation or to improve both broad abilities and a certain task-specific one, just get in touch with us to discuss your needs.
Your Place ...
In-house training can be arranged in the Rhine-Neckar / Rhine-Main areas. Intensive training is possible throughout Germany.
... or Ours?
Alternatively, you can enroll employees in open courses. Small groups meet at our attractive location in the heart of Heidelberg’s historic old town. Please see our current course schedule.
Ascend: Landscapes and Close-ups
Our Ascend system offers structure for increasing employees’ general confidence and skills as well as flexibility to focus on selected topics significant for each individual group – all within the context of job-related situations. The system is organized into six courses according to participants' language abilities.
Before starting, it's important to arrange a one-to-one orientation talk between each learner and an English, Inc. trainer. This short conversation helps identify language needs as well as which course would fit best. Talks can be held at your firm or on our premises in Heidelberg. They’re normally free of charge and carry no obligation. To arrange appointments for employees or to learn more, simply phone or e-mail.
