Course description:
Intercultural learning is the key today for anyone who is preparing for a successful profession or career in a globalized society. Especially for all professionals doing business with German speaking partners, or who participate in important conferences or trade fairs, those, who, for example work in the hotel trade or tourism industry, are active in the media, and/or cultural organisations, should be able to sufficiently comprehend and master specific terminologies used in their respective discipline and the technical usage.
As soon as we can determine your personal language and scheduling needs, we will develop an individual curriculum for you, taking into consideration your existing language skills. Naturally the regional and cultural history, the social conventions and traditions in Germany will be integrated into the instruction material and content. We will coordinate directly with you to make sure your individual or particular needs will be met.
This customized language training is designed to provide practical training for those participants who wish to achieve their individual language goals in the shortest possible time frame. Lunch with the instructor can be arranged upon request.
The courses take place either at the Collegium Palatinum or at a location of your choice.*
* (There will be extra charge for the travel costs of the instructor)
