Professional Communication Skills (in English)
Communicating today requires a mix of language knowledge and professional communication skills. English language knowledge gives you the security to use the correct forms; and communication skills give you the ability to build relationships. Taken together these two elements will ensure you have the necessary skills to perform competently in English in a professional environment.
Description
The course offers active practice in the professional communication skills of meetings, negotiations, presentations, telephoning, emails and report writing. Additionally, you will be expected to take part in discussions on work-related topics and current affairs, and the intercultural aspects of working internationally. Your course also reviews useful language for socialising and networking.You will be introduced to the core elements of the language we use when we have to work in English, such as phrases to agree/disagree, the diplomatic no, give and ask for an opinion, diplomatic etiquette, clarifying, question forms, signalling, bargaining, talking and presenting numbers.All the sessions will be practical and hands-on. Our training resources include multimedia technology and the internet. Authentic materials are used to generate realistic and interesting discussions and role- plays. This gives you ample opportunity to practice these professional communication skills and maximise your command of English.
