Business English and Spanish

Business proficiency in a second or third language is a sign of professionalism. That’s why our development agents take business communication courses in English or Spanish, depending on their target market. Topics covered include:

• Business vocabulary
• Written and oral communication
  • Email introductions, information requests, invitations, and follow-ups
  • Telephone, meeting, and trade fair sales pitches
  • Negotiations
  • Making conversation at a meeting, in a restaurant, or on the street
• Business culture
• Formal and informal language, slang

Language training involves simulations (meetings, email, trade fairs) as well as discussions and comprehension exercises. Courses are given by native English and Spanish speakers.
