Business language courses in Heidelberg

Do you need industry-specific language skills? Your team should gain more confidence in communicating on the phone, in e-mails or in presentations in specific languages? You want to be convincing in intercultural meetings? We can help - and have been doing so for 40 years.

Through its Corporate Language Training, the Academy of Languages offers customized language training for companies and organizations in more than 20 languages, such as English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Chinese or Russian.

Thanks to their modular structure, the language training courses can be individually adapted to the specific requirements of an industry or company division. The trainings take place in the form of group courses, individual lessons, day seminars or weekend workshops - either in our school, as an in-house training in your company or as an online course. The focus of our trainings is on active speaking - for this we plan a lot of time for all participants.

We can teach you these and other key topics in the language of your choice:

•     Telephone calls: apply phrases & techniques for all types of telephone communication.
•     E-mails and reports: using formal and informal language; style, layout and structure
•     Presentations: effective and appealing presentations for different occasions and target audiences
•     Meetings & negotiations: expressing yourself politely and diplomatically, influencing and persuading others
•     Intercultural understanding and communication: understanding how people from different cultures communicate and perceive the world around them
•     Grammar and vocabulary: to present oneself and the company in a professional way

The modules can be combined individually.

✓ Tailor-made: we devote ourselves entirely to the specific concerns of our customers and work closely with them to design effective training courses that really help them progress. Before the course begins, we conduct placement tests and needs analyses to get an accurate picture of each participant's language level and individual goals.
