Training courses
We provide skills training in English in three areas: Management, Personal, and Interpersonal skills.
We have created a unique combination of management development and language training. Because we’ve found that many people simply do not need more English classes as they already have a competent level of English. However, they do need more in-depth skills training than is traditionally offered by language schools in areas such as presenting and negotiating effectively in English. That is where Business Language Solutions is different; we are skills-based, language school training is linguistically based.
Business Learning Solutions can offer you a wide range of training solutions. Our pre-designed courses are ideal for those clients with a limited budget who wish to provide a standard course to groups of people with similar professional needs.
