English in the Workplace can provide training in English language skills and Cross-Cultural Communication that is specially tailored to the needs of your company.
What We Can Do For Your Business
We can develop and deliver a training program that will accommodate the specific needs of your company. This will include an initial needs assessment done after meeting with you and visiting your site. We will assess the English language skills of your employees and develop a program with instructional materials that suit the unique needs of your employees and your business. We will deliver the program at your place of business or at the YWCA of Calgary, whichever is more convenient for you.
We can provide training to people whose English language skills range in levels from ‘beginner’ to ‘advanced’. Our expertise includes experience teaching clients from a variety of linguistic, cultural and occupational backgrounds.
We can provide training in a variety of forms. It could be a series of workshops, a program of regular weekly classes, or tutorial sessions for individuals or small groups.
Your company’s training program may include training in such areas as Cross-cultural Communication Skills, Basic Pronunciation, Advanced Pronunciation & Fluency, Workplace Health & Safety Training or specific training that deals with other language and cultural needs in your workplace.
